Current Situation on the Consumption of Hypnotic Substances at the Pharmacy (HYPNOSIS)

June 23, 2026 updated by: Nantes University Hospital
In France, consumption of hypnotic drugs is high. In this context, and given the planned regulatory modifications, it seems essential to make an inventory of the consumption of drugs taken for a hypnotic purpose. This study aims to identify the substances (medical or not) used for a hypnotic purpose in the adult population going to a pharmacy.
