FAQs

What causes poor sleep, and can it be treated?

Poor sleep has many possible causes, from stress and routine to underlying medical issues. Your doctor works through this with you at your consultation before recommending anything.

How does the Oryx sleep programme work?

You start with a free eligibility check, followed by a consultation with a South African doctor. If appropriate, your doctor prescribes and monitors treatment, adjusting your plan as you go.

Is prescription sleep treatment safe?

When prescribed and monitored by a doctor, it can be used safely in appropriate patients. Safety depends on proper assessment, correct dosing and ongoing review.

I'm already on other medication. Does that matter?

Tell your doctor about everything you're taking during your consultation. This is particularly important if you're on sedatives, antidepressants or blood pressure medication, they'll check for interactions before prescribing.

How much does treatment cost?

From R180 per month, but this varies by patient and product.
