Ever woken up feeling off after a night of NyQuil-induced sleep? You're not alone. In this episode of 'Recovery Partner Network', the hosts unpack the curious effects of NyQuil on your sleep cycle. They explain how this common over-the-counter medicine can delay your REM sleep, leading to a sudden rush of REM once the medication wears off. This surge is caused by a spike in acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in REM sleep.
The episode dives into why this happens and what it means for your overall sleep quality. If you've ever found yourself groggy or disoriented after using NyQuil, this episode sheds light on why that might be. Perfect for anyone who relies on NyQuil for relief but wants to understand its impact on their sleep patterns.
