Sleep apnea is a very common medical problem that affects a large portion of the population. The treatment options leave much to be desired including what is by far and away the most common treatment: the CPAP device. This reality has led to the quest to find a medical treatment for sleep apnea, and one investigational drug AD109, has received some early attention. In this episode we will:

Discuss the history of medications being tested as potential treatments for sleep apnea
Review how sleep apnea is classified in terms of its severity
List the current therapies for sleep apnea
Describe the two components of AD109, and the mechanism of action of these drugs
Evaluate the design and results of a recent study of AD109 in mild sleep apnea
Put in perspective what these result mean in real world situations
