Clinical notes

Because of the individual constituents of Neurexan, the medication can be offered for the following conditions:

  1. Nervousness or nervous restlessness. Empirically, in this condition, Neurexan is fast in onset and can be taken when necessary. This includes nervousness associated with overuse of coffee and other stimulants.
  2. Insomnia. Empirically, the best results are achieved after continuous use over a few weeks to restore the sleep pattern, although Neurexan will induce sleep when taken as necessary.
  3. Irritability and restlessness.
