The rate of subjects who achieved more than 50% dose reduction of (non-)BZD hypnotics (Diazepam conversion value) at 12 weeks or withdrawal since informed consent.
1) The achievement ratio of the 50% dose reduction (Diazepam conversion value) at 4weeks and 8weeks
2) The average of the dose reduction rate at 4weeks, 8weeks and 12weeks
3) The achievement ratio of the 100% dose reduction at 12weeks or withdrawal
4) The variation in total score of PSQI and AIS at 4weeks, 8weeks and 12weeks
5) The variation in PHQ-9 score at 4weeks, 8weeks and 12weeks
6) CIWA-B score at 4weeks, 8weeks and 12weeks
