March Disease Focus » Sleep Disorders
In order to prepare your pharmacy for Sleep Awareness week, which occurs the first week of March, a quick review of sleep disorders, prevalence, and treatment options is a great place to begin. "Sleep disorders" is a generalized term for over 70 different disorders that generally fall into the following three categories: lack of sleep (insomnia), disturbed sleep (apnea), and excessive sleep (narcolepsy). Insomnia, which is considered the most common disorder, is believed to affect over 60 million Americans. How much sleep do we really need? According to the National Sleep Foundation children and infants ages 2 months to 12 years require between 9-18 hours, adolescents require between 8.5-9.5 hours, and adults require between 7-9 hours of sleep a night.
