" Dr Malkani: “This new medication, actually old medication, called dronabinol, is a medicine that affects certain neurotransmitters in the brain, serotonin and norepinephrine. And these neurotransmitters go down during sleep, and these seem to play a role in upper airway tone.”
This may be old news on this board but, it is new to me.
Would you take a pill over cpap?
