Ramelteon activates melatonin receptors in the suprachiasmatic nuclei of the CNS and decreases the latency of sleep onset with minimal rebound insomnia or withdrawal symptoms.it has no direct effects on GABA-ergic neurotransmission in the CNS. Unlike conventional hypnotics ramelteon appears to have minimal abuse liability, and it is not a controlled substance.
