Hello and happy new year

I am caregiver to my wife who was diagnosed with psp 3 years ago

She has also some dementia

We are both 77 and I have cll

Does anyone know of a medication that can help her sleep more through the night

She wakes occasionally still in a dream state and it can take some time to get her back to bed

Thanks

By PSP, I presume you mean Progressive Supranuclear Palsy? I've not heard this condition mentioned in our CLL community. There are some mentions of PSP in other HealthUnlocked communities per this search:- healthunlocked.com/search/p...

but unfortunately, a search with sleep medication didn't seem to turn up any helpful posts.

If you can't find more helpful results via "Search HealthUnlocked" in the top menu (such as perhaps a community where there is more discussion on PSP), I hope you can find help elsewhere for your wife.
