A Randomized, Double-Blind, Single-Dose, 4-Way Crossover Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of SM-1 (50-mg Diphenhydramine, 5-mg Delayed-Release Zolpidem, and 0.5-mg Delayed-Release Lorazepam) Versus 2 Comparators (50-mg Diphenhydramine and 5-mg Delayed-Release Zolpidem; 50-mg Diphenhydramine and 0.5-mg Delayed-Release Lorazepam) and Placebo in a 5-Hour Phase Advance Model of Transient Insomnia.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of a
combination drug product (SM-1) containing diphenhydramine, zolpidem and lorazepam, in adult
participants who sometimes have difficulty in falling asleep or staying asleep, but who do
not have chronic insomnia. Participants will receive SM-1, or a combination of
diphenhydramine and zolpidem, or a combination of diphenhydramine and lorazepam, or placebo
during 4 one-night stays at a sleep center.

periods involving an overnight stay at the study center.
- Refrains from napping (any sleep episode occurring outside subject's main sleep
episode) on days of check-in for each of 4 treatment periods involving an overnight
stay at the study center.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Females who are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning a pregnancy during the study
period.
