Frequently Asked Questions

Can a GP help with insomnia?▼
Yes, our doctors at Klinik Muhibbah can evaluate and treat insomnia. We identify underlying causes, provide sleep hygiene advice, and prescribe appropriate medication when needed. Many sleep problems improve with proper guidance.
Will I be given sleeping pills?▼
We prioritise non-medication approaches first. If medication is needed, we prescribe the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration while addressing the root cause. We avoid long-term dependency.

Yes, conditions like thyroid disorders, anaemia, chronic pain, depression, and sleep apnoea can all cause insomnia. We may recommend blood tests (thyroid, FBC) to check for treatable medical causes.
