Compound Ciwujia Granules in the Treatment of Insomnia

The goal of this multicenter, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized controlled trial was to examine the efficacy and safety of Compound Ciwujia Granules in the treatment of chronic insomnia. A total of 1200 participants with chronic insomnia were randomly assigned to receive one of the three treatment for 4 consecutive weeks: Compound Ciwujia Granules + placebo of estazolam, estazolam + placebo of estazolam + placebo of Compound Ciwujia Granules, or Compound Ciwujia Granules + estazolam + placebo of estazolam. Outcomes were assessed at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Are there any significant differences between groups regarding changes in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score, Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) score, subjective sleep latency, sedative and hypnotics use, improvement in sleep maintenance, Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-17) score, Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA-14) score, Flinders Fatigue Scale (FFS) score, and constitution classification/insomnia pattern score of traditional Chinese medicine after 4 weeks' treatment, and follow-up at 8 weeks and 12 weeks. 2. Is the Compound Ciwujia Granules a safe method for chronic insomnia treatment in adults?
