Medication is another method of treatment for sleep disorders. Normally, therapy is accompanied alongside medication presscribed. It is important to maintain continuous communication with your doctor if you are on prescription medicine.

Other forms of therapy, surgery, and diet options are available for Erie seniors who suffer from sleep disorders. Refer to Allegheny Health Network for more information.
