The result is a moral and physical fatigue, neurosis, sleep problems. Pills to calm the nervous system help to cope with this condition. They prevent her exhaustion, help relieve irritability and fatigue. There are different categories of sedatives that differ in effectiveness.

The effect of sedatives on the nervous system

A kind of shake-up in the form of light, short-term stresses is useful for the body. This helps to mobilize all your forces and direct them to solve the problem. When emotional stress become permanent, the body loses its calmness and fails in the form of breakdowns or mental disorders. Sedatives for the nervous system of an adult help restore emotional balance. They have the following effects on the body:

1. Strengthening braking processes in the cortex and subcortex of the brain, which reduces the level of excitability of the nervous system. As a result, attacks of irritability, aggression, excessive tearfulness, and conflict disappear.
2. Normalization of the autonomic and central nervous system (CNS). It helps to get rid of hand tremor, high anxiety, sweating. Also after taking sedatives spasms in the intestines pass, the heartbeat normalizes.
3. Eliminate sleep problems. It becomes easier for a person to fall asleep, but the medicine does not disturb his normal physiological rhythms. This is the advantage of sedatives over sleeping pills, which make it easier to fall asleep due to the effect on the cerebral cortex.
