Bizarre sleepwalking linked to sleeping pill
Friday Feb 2 04:00 AEDT
By ninemsn staff
A suspect sleeping pill is causing Australians to paint the front door, binge-eat, and drive while still asleep, a new study reveals.
The Federal Health Department has received 16 separate reports of odd "sleepwalking" behaviour caused by the drug Stilnox, The Sydney Morning Herald reports.
A woman taking the drug "woke with a paintbrush in her hand after painting the front door while asleep," the Adverse Drug Reactions Advisory Committee said in a bulletin published yesterday.
Another patient reportedly gained 23 kilograms over seven months while taking Stilnox.
"It was only when she was discovered eating in front of an open refrigerator while asleep that the problem was resolved," the bulletin said.
The committee also received two alarming reports "which suggest the possibility of driving while asleep."
The new study marks the first time "inappropriate or strange automatic behaviour" related to Stilnox has been noted in Australia since the drug was introduced here in 2000, although cases have been reported overseas.
The health department also received 104 reports of hallucinations and 62 of amnesia relating to the drug.
Alan Brindell, a spokesman for the manufacturer of Stilnox, Sanofi-Aventis, told the Herald it had not been proven that the drug was causing the disturbed sleep behaviour.
Brindell could not provide an estimate for the number of people in Australia using Stilnox, which is only available on prescription and attracts no subsidy.
LOL at Stillknox and knowing people who take it to trip out comming down hahahahaha _________________ "Thousands of years ago, cats were worshipped as Gods. Cats have never forgotten this." Anonymous. |

Your supposed to take it 10mins before going to bed...
But...
iF you try and stay awake? You start having open eye hallucinations like your halfway between awake and asleep!
My old boss said his dad had some, sat down and watched a wall for 5 hours
He said it was moving, and told a story of a young man from world war 2 _________________

funny thing bout this drug is that anyone in the army/ defence force gets prescribed this drug with any sleeping problems
ive been on it for bout 4 months now and i do also believe these stories but also the affects of afterwards hasnt yet been studied yet
i can wake up out of a full deep coma like sleep then 3 hours later fell woozy and look pail and feel like im bout to faint. then 10 seconds later i feel fine!
pretty weird drug but it helps put me to sleep at nite
well my 2 cents anyways |
