What medications does LifeMD offer for sleep?

LifeMD offers ramelteon (generic Rozerem), doxepin (generic Silenor), and trazodone (generic Desyrel).

Ramelteon is a melatonin receptor agonist used to help patients who have sleep-onset insomnia (difficulty falling asleep) fall asleep more quickly. It works similarly to melatonin, a natural substance in the brain that is needed for sleep.

Doxepin is a hypnotic (sleep) medicine that is used to treat people who have trouble staying asleep. Doxepin has not been shown to cause physical dependence or withdrawal symptoms.

Trazodone is a serotonin modulator that helps people fall asleep and stay asleep through the night. It blocks histamines known to cause wakefulness, making you feel drowsy and ready for sleep.
