It is usually caused by a mutation to the gene encoding protein prpc. It has two forms: fatal familial insomnia (ffi), which is autosomal dominant and sporadic fatal insomnia (sfi) which is due to a noninherited mutation.

What is your age. Do you nap in daytime or do you sleep till late in morning. If yes then stop it. U need to change your habits. Try to go to bed early. Stop watching tv or mobile phone etc atleast an hour before going to sleep. Drink warm milk before going to bed. Even if you not able to sleep do not start chatting on what's app or face book etc. Don't sleep till late in morning. Eat healthy well balanced food. Finish your dinner at least 2 hours before bed time. Also dinner should be light do some kind of exercise daily. Slowly your sleeping timings will change. It will take time. Have patience. For more details you can consult me.

I am diagnosed with tourette syndrome finally after 19 years of continuous medication. The doctor prescribed me risperidone 2 mg, aripiprazole 15 mg and zoldem/zolp 20 mg. But this medication has caused me insomnia. Initially I used to lay down whole night but no sleep. I get only 3 to 4 hours sleep now. My question is can I replace zoldem with serenace/haldol 5 mg?

Insomnia can happen due to many reasons. The most common reason is stress or illness. Temporary stress due to changes in job, relationships, death of a loved one, or moving to a new place. If you feel like it is due to medication, you should discuss it further over a call along with your complete medical history. Thanks.

As you said, alprax .25 mg has side effects. Your insomnia may be due several reasons like mental exertion, worry, depression, overwork, continuous exposure to computer/ mobile screen and other health problems. Avoid sleep during daytime. Have early and light dinner so that the food is digested before you go to bed. Don’t do any concentrated mental work thereafter so that your mind is calm and quiet when you go to bed and lingering thoughts in mind don’t disturb your sleep. Keep your bed room comfortably cooler. Have a good night sleep. If you still have problem, homeopathy has very good solution. No side effects. No addiction. Please take homeopathic medicine arsenic album 200-once daily in the evening for 5 days. Consult me through “Lybrate text consult” for further prescription and treatment.
