Frequently asked questions

What is Numark Sleep Aid used for?+

How does diphenhydramine work to promote sleep?+
Diphenhydramine blocks H1 histamine receptors in the brain, reducing the wake‑promoting effects of histamine. Its ability to cross the blood‑brain barrier also produces anticholinergic activity, which together create a sedative‑hypnotic effect that helps initiate and maintain sleep.
