Were you looking for information about Rozerem? Rosarum is a common misspelling of Rozerem.
If you have difficulty falling asleep, a healthcare provider may prescribe Rozerem® (ramelteon). This prescription medication works by stimulating melatonin receptors in the body, which helps people to fall asleep. Unlike many other insomnia medications, Rozerem is not habit-forming and is not a controlled substance. Before your healthcare provider prescribes this form of insomnia treatment, he or she will consider several factors, including other medical conditions you may have and other medications you are taking (including vitamins and supplements).
