Facts on insomnia, muscle relaxant medications
Dormonoct is schedule 5 psychotropic medication classed as benzodiazepine used for insomnia, muscle relaxant. This high scheduling in South Africa means that all South African medical doctors prescribing or dispensing benzodiazepines like (Dormonoct, Dormonoct, Somnovit and Sonin) that contain Loprazolam must keep a national register of prescription allocations as it is highly controlled substance by legislation.
The motivation for scheduling Loprazolam, Dormonoct, Somnovit and Sonin and other benzodiazepines is due to the fact that psychoactive drugs like Dormonoct can affect on the chemical composition of the brain and nervous system and are capable of influencing your emotions, mind and your moods, or perceptions.
Psychoactive drugs like Loprazolam has tolerance factors that can lead to substance use disorders (even if used as directed) and may limit your cognitive function. Consequently, Dormonoct must only be administered as directed by a medical practitioner.
Combining Dormonoct with other drugs or alcohol has the potential to cause chain reactions that further increases the chance of an overdose or even death.
What does Dormonoct do?
Dormonoct adheres to receptors in your nervous system and brain. This boosts the production of a chemical called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). This can produce a calming effect in your brain. Loprazolam is a central nervous system (CNS) depressant and it may be prescribed for it’s sedation effects on people.
As the intent of Dormonoct suppresses your nervous system and you can enter a more relaxed state of being. This de-activated state becomes the primary drawcard for many people who have underlying or constant modes of anxiety or stress in their day to day life that cause the insomnia, muscle relaxant related symptoms.
It won’t take you long to figure out that medications will work for reducing most insomnia, muscle relaxant symptoms. This is why so many people become addicted to Dormonoct even using it as directed by a doctor. The tolerance to and withdrawal from Loprazolam builds quite quickly thus so does the pressure for upping the the recommended dosage.

Many patients that struggle with insomnia, muscle relaxant can find short to medium term relief in Loprazolam (Dormonoct, Dormonoct, Somnovit and Sonin) prescriptions. In many scenarios, benzodiazepines like Dormonoct are a only a short-term solution which should be used in conjunction with psychotherapy and changes to your lifestyle to best manage the underlying causes of insomnia, muscle relaxant symptoms.

In many cases, Dormonoct will stay in your system for around 10 days or five “half-lives” to metabolise Loprazolam from the body. Shorter metabolising benzodiazepines have a short half-life meaning that they are processed more quickly and leave your body more quickly. Conversely, long-acting benzodiazepines take longer to be metabolised by the body.
