Well, praise be, there might actually be a solution…

Experts say that a new once-a-night pill could actually serve to stop your partner snoring for good.

This new tablet, which is currently known by the code name AD109, is supposed to ease the symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), which is a condition that affects two million Brits.

OSA can lead to heavy snoring, as well as interrupted breathing due to the throat muscles relaxing and narrowing during sleep.

From clinical trials the initial results have suggested that the pill might actually ease snoring by up to 74 per cent, which sounds pretty hopeful!

The pill is a combination of two existing medications.

The first one is atomoxetine, which has been available for nearly 20 years and is often used to treat kids who suffers from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) because it improves concentration by increasing the amount of noradrenaline, a brain chemical.

Scientists in America believe that this brain chemical can also stimulate cells, known as motor neurons, meaning that your airways will not narrow in your sleep.

The second medication is oxybutynin, which is typically used for patients with incontinence, stopping bladder leaks.

In this instance, it is also thought to be able to enable the muscles that control your tongue to contract, and therefore stop it from blocking your throat.

So far the tests have only involved both drugs being administered to snorers at the same time, but a U.S firm called Apnimed have combined the two medicines into one pill and trials are set to being soon.

We cannot wait to see if they are successful… and maybe, one day, get a quiet night’s sleep!
