People with bipolar disorder (manic depression) often have trouble sleeping. This can lead to worsening problems with mood and functioning.
Stanford University is investigating the use of suvorexant for treatment-resistant insomnia in patients with bipolar disorder.
• Participants will have an initial psychiatric exam and will be monitored during the 14-week study by a psychiatrist who specializes in bipolar disorder.
• For one week, participants will add suvorexant or a placebo to their current medication treatment.
• The following week, and for the next 3 months, all participants will receive suvorexant.
• There is no cost to participants and participants will receive some compensation for time and travel.
