Abstract

The results of this double-blind study showed that both chlormethiazole and temazepam are effective, in the correct dose, for the short-term treatment of sleep disturbance in elderly patients. With chlormethiazole treatment there was no daytime drowsiness, whereas significant daytime drowsiness occurred with temazepam.
