Effects and risks of sleeping pills
Sleeping pills are currently classified as medications used worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) advises against serious side effects from regular use, but not from prolonged use.
According to WHO data, people who take sleeping pills, particularly benzodiazepines, have a significantly higher risk of premature death. Consider the price of 18 pills, which has a multiplier of 3.5. The higher the dose, the greater the danger.
Furthermore, sleeping pills have been shown to raise blood pressure. This is why the WHO recommends that people who take them regularly consult a doctor to have their blood pressure checked.

A study conducted in China shows that sleep disturbances are often an early sign of high blood pressure. Insomnia is particularly frequently associated with elevated blood pressure.
