- Trazodone has low rates of side effects with low doses used PRN for sleep.
- Olanzapine and Quetiapine 2nd gen antipsychotics used for sleep and delirium. Avoid in older patients with dementia (black box warning).
- Melatonin does not make you feel drowsy. It enhances natural sleep wake cycle. Must be paired with good sleep hygiene. Only need very small amounts (1 mg). Give 1 hr before bedtime.
