We are best practice

First NCE Approval for innovative sleeping medicine

In 2019 AET successfully gained the first European NCE approval for an advanced drug being used to treat the symptoms of insomnia in a better and safer way. Studies have shown that our sleeping aid has the following main advantages compared to other sedative drugs: Our product has a lower dosage and, based on available studies, can be used for a longer period of time. Other sleeping pills may only be used for a maximum of two weeks. The innovative drug has been studied in a variety of clinical settings involving primary insomnia and insomnia secondary to various chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, generalised anxiety disorder, and major depressive illness. The results across studies in adults are consistent and demonstrate shorter sleep latency, longer sleep time, and less wakening after the onset of sleep compared to placebo. Furthermore, the study program revealed that our sleeping medicine provides safety benefits resulting from lower morning serum levels.

The product has been launched in several European countries. With this first marketing authorization, AET enables thousands of patients in Europe suffering from insomnia a better and safer therapy – sustainably improving their quality of life.
