What is the treatment for sleep paralysis

The treatment of sleep paralysis includes general treatment and drug treatment. 1. General treatment: Avoid bad sleeping posture during sleep, don’t stay up late, don’t rest upside down, don’t watch some stimulating videos or books before sleep, and keep a stable mind to avoid too much psychological pressure. 2. Medication: If sleep paralysis persists, amitriptyline, venlafaxine and other medications can be applied for treatment, which can reduce the episodes of sleep paralysis in the short term. When complicated by mental symptoms, it should also be improved with the use of aripiprazole, olanzapine and other drugs. When using medication, it is important to follow the doctor’s instructions to use medication reasonably, do not use medication arbitrarily to avoid causing adverse reactions.
