Supply
Doxepin is a medication that, at low doses, works primarily on histamine signaling in the brain. Histamine is one of the key chemical messengers that keeps you awake, and by quieting that signal, low-dose doxepin supports the brain's natural transition into and through sleep.
It is typically used by people who fall asleep without much trouble but struggle to stay asleep through the night, or who wake earlier than they want to. It is a non-controlled option, which makes it a common starting point in provider-directed sleep care.
Doxepin is a prescription medication used under medical supervision, with your provider tailoring treatment to your sleep pattern and history. OpenDoseRx treatments are dispensed only after a licensed provider reviews your health intake and determines a prescription is appropriate for you.
