List of common wake (sun) and sleep (moon) medications prescribed to military personnel; all Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved medications are available for prescription at military treatment facilities. In general, over-the-counter drugs (OTC; e.g. melatonin) are preferred first, followed by non-benzodiazepines. Benzodiazepines are least preferred given their pronounced side effects and deleterious impact on function and performance. Use of trademarked names does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government and is intended only to assist in identification of specific medications
