AI Thread Summary
Central sleep apnea is a condition that requires effective management, and current medications may not be effective for everyone. For those seeking alternatives, it's recommended to explore mechanical devices like CPAP, which can be researched through credible sources such as the NIH. This approach helps avoid misleading advertisements and focuses on reliable clinical information. Additionally, there is interest in the latest medications approved in the European Union, particularly in Greece, highlighting the need for updated and region-specific treatment options.

Hi all,

I have been diagnosed with central sleep apnea. The medicine I ve been given doesn't seem to work on me.

Is anyone here expert on this subject, knows what are the latest medicines for central sleep apnea and if they have been allowed in european union and more specifically in greece (where i live).

We cannot give medical advice on PF. Try these:
google search "NIH CPAP" --for mechanical devices
google search "NIH apnea" --
These will result in white papers, research and clinical reports, otherwise you will be inundated with advertisements. Which likely have questionable advice.
