The main assistant in getting sleep is serotonin, which excites neurons of a certain part of the brain, and they in turn activate neurons that secrete inhibitory neurotransmitters. Therefore, "NA SON" helps a person to excite and extinguish the necessary neurons, due to which the patient, who suffers from constant insomnia, soon falls asleep.

Many will agree that the drug NA SON is a very effective sleeping pill. This sedative drug, the components of which are created on a plant basis, is a very useful thing for those who cannot fall asleep without a sleeping pill. The composition of the drug Na Son includes valerian, which has a rather calming effect on the central and autonomic nervous system, improves sleep. Hops, as a soft natural sleeping pill, which is also included in this drug, has a sedative effect on a person.

In combination, valerian and hops help restore mental balance, help to relax, which can ensure a calm, healthy sleep.

Indications TO SLEEP

In our case, namely with insomnia, inhibitory mediators are not enough to suppress the activity of the necessary part of the brain. This is why we cannot fall asleep. After all, we all remember that falling asleep does not happen when our nervous system is in an excited state. We constantly turn from side to side, obsessive thoughts do not give us peace, literally every rustle, every knock irritates us.

This is exactly what the drug NA SON is prescribed for. Indications for use of NA SON can be considered safe for human health. These pills will not aggravate the existing difficulties, will not add new ones, but on the contrary, will solve old ailments. It is usually used for sleep disorders, the main symptoms of which are a violation of the process of falling asleep, periodic awakening at night, which do not have serious grounds for this. Characteristic signs of sleep disorders can also include short-term night sleep, which is usually caused by anxiety, unjustified anxiety, tension or irritability.

Release form

In order for sleep to be normal, it is important, first of all, to follow simple hygiene rules. In the morning and in the afternoon, it is necessary to do physical exercises. For dinner, it is worth stopping only at "light" food, so that the stomach can quickly digest the contents and not interfere with a full sleep. As for the time at which a person should go to bed, it is important to fall asleep and wake up in the morning at the same time, so that the body gets used to the daily schedule. It is worth getting up as soon as the body wakes up, and not lying down for a few more minutes.

You should not smoke or drink any stimulating drinks at night. These include tea, coffee, and alcohol. It is also not recommended to sleep in a very cold or very hot room. Doing active physical exercises shortly before bed is also not advisable. If these tips do not help you, then you can move on to taking medications. This can be a drug based on natural ingredients, such as "NA SON". The form of release of the drug "NA SON" is as follows. The tablets themselves are coated with a shell that can look from blue to blue, with a biconvex surface. Two layers are visible on the cross-section.

If you drink them as written on the package, then subsequently you will not only sleep soundly, but also your biological clock will return to normal. You will fall asleep on time and also wake up at the right time for you. If you do not follow the doctor's recommendations, drink sleeping pills, then you may be among those people suffering from sleep disorders, which are increasing worldwide every year. Stress, sleep disorders, excessive consumption of tea and coffee, cardiovascular diseases are the main reasons for this. A small percentage of sleep disorders are due to depression (a disease of the nervous system with painful depression of mood).

Pharmacodynamics

The drug "NA SON" has once again, it should be recalled, a sedative effect. It helps to facilitate the process of falling asleep, which soon leads to the onset and improvement of sleep quality. These effects cannot be explained by the action of any one component of "NA SON". Only together, valerian and hops, acting together, can achieve a full beneficial effect on human sleep.

Pharmacodynamics of NA SON is as follows. The sedative effect when using this product is extremely slow, but it develops stably and completely only with systematic and long-term course treatment. The body's reaction rate to external stimuli is significantly reduced, which soon leads to the rapid onset of natural sleep. Valerian and hops have an antispasmodic effect, a slight choleretic effect. The complex of biologically active substances regulates cardiac activity, namely: it slows down the heart rate, slightly dilates the coronary vessels.

After all, the quality of sleep is directly proportional to performance. It determines how a person will behave throughout the day. A poorly rested man or a tired woman is unlikely to be able to show amazing results at work. At best, they will do their job routinely, stereotypically, mechanically. On the contrary, poor sleep will provoke the manifestation of negative character traits. Increased irritability, emotional incontinence will soon make themselves known, thereby causing an annoying feeling, helplessness, anger or resentment. In addition, the state of higher mental functions deteriorates. Memory, attention, thinking, decrease, coordination of movements is impaired. Often even speech loses its usual rhythm, smoothness, and the voice does not sound so clear, cheerful, natural. Many will probably try to argue. After all, once in their student years, they could not sleep all night, having learned almost the entire curriculum in a year. Yes, but for a very short time, because all the information that enters the brain goes into short-term memory and does not stay there for long. But the brain of a well-rested person works much better, and memory never fails.

A good sleep allows you to use your memory, navigate in a given situation, and make the most correct decision quickly and correctly. However, people who like "night wakefulness" should not complain about sudden insomnia. They themselves, without wanting to, caused it. Being carried away by reading books, not wanting to tear themselves away from this activity even at very late hours, can turn out to be quite serious consequences for them.

Pharmacokinetics

The pharmacokinetics of NA SON have not been studied well enough, which is primarily due to the impossibility of accurately identifying the active ingredient of the drug. After taking 2-3 tablets of NA SON orally, as expected, only after 1 hour is the desired effect of falling asleep achieved. With repeated use of the drug, its pharmacokinetics do not change.

As noted earlier, voluntary reduction of sleep duration leads to insomnia. Sleep in this case ceases to be deep and effective. On the contrary, it becomes worse, full of disturbing dreams. This should be taken into account by those who accept smoking at night. Everyone should know that nicotine also reduces the quality of sleep, makes it restless and short. It is not for nothing that heavy smokers can wake up in the middle of the night. The same phenomenon can be found in those who like to drink coffee at night. It is necessary to start the fight for sound sleep, first of all, by developing the habit of falling asleep and waking up on time. This is as important a requirement as mandatory psychological relief. The fact is that during sleep the brain continues to work, the information received during the day is processed, it, so to speak, organizes it. All this begins in advance, even at the moment of wakefulness. Therefore, 2-3 hours before sleep, it is necessary to relieve the brain as quickly and as much as possible, creating, as doctors say, comfortable conditions for it. It is also necessary to create a favorable emotional background. It is obvious that any increase in nervous activity prevents you from getting rest, and therefore sleep. Therefore, in the evening, you need to avoid everything that can, figuratively speaking, "throw you out of balance", disappoint or excite you. Train yourself not to even try to make any serious decisions at night, not to solve difficult problems, not to overload yourself with excessive mental work, not to receive or show absolutely any negative emotions. It should be noted that by the end of the working day, irritability most often increases. Many things that did not bother you during the day can cause negative reactions in you in the evening. Innocent jokes most often offend, music seems very loud, any troubles in the family and in everyday life can seem significant, lead to discord.

To date, there is not a single sleeping pill that would be considered the safest for the fetus. There is not a single study that would prove this. Therefore, it is best to refuse to take sleeping pills during pregnancy. The use of NA SON during pregnancy or breastfeeding is also contraindicated.

These drugs can be prescribed to a pregnant woman only by a doctor, and only in extreme cases. But do not despair ahead of time.

In addition, a pregnant woman can take herbal medicines, which can be an alternative to some medications. However, not all of them are safe for her health and the baby. For example, a cup of chamomile tea is absolutely not harmful for expectant mothers. However, some plants may contain chemical components that can later penetrate the baby through the placenta. The most dangerous thing is that they can cause premature labor.

Although the drug "NA SON" is safe in itself, the use of NA SON during pregnancy is prohibited.

There is no need to take herbal remedies or other medications during the first trimester. Later, they can be taken in small doses for short periods of time and only if prescribed by a doctor.
