Active Ingredient Description
Daridorexant

Daridorexant is a dual orexin receptor antagonist, acting on both orexin 1 and orexin 2 receptors and equipotent on both. The orexin neuropeptides (orexin A and orexin B) act on orexin receptors to promote wakefulness. Daridorexant antagonises the activation of orexin receptors by the orexin neuropeptides and consequently decreases the wake drive, allowing sleep to occur, without altering the proportion of sleep stages.
