Hypnotics and Air Operations,
Abstract
Essentially, the factors which influence the use of a drug in the context of occupational medicine vary. We have examined the use of hypnotics and antihistamines as they raise two very different issues. In the management of sleep disturbances the challenge is to provide an effective hypnotic free of adverse effects on sleep and of residual effects on performance, whereas with the allergic states the individual must remain alert while the drug is acting peripherally. In this paper we deal with hypnotics.
