Get started on Somryst
without leaving the house thanks
to the power of telemedicine.
1Online consultation
The process is entirely online, and it starts with a sleep consult with a licensed healthcare professional. Prior to a short interview, you’ll fill out a quick medical questionnaire. This helps the healthcare professional understand your situation in more detail, which will help them make a more informed decision about whether or not you’re a good candidate for Somryst.
- The consult may be face-to-face or conducted via back-and-forth messages, depending on your state
- Typically takes around 10 minutes
- The consult doesn’t guarantee you’ll receive a prescription
2Receive your prescription
If you receive a prescription, you’ll be notified by us (PearConnect™) and our pharmacy partner (Truepill). Don’t worry—Somryst definitely isn’t a pill and you won’t have to go to a pharmacy. You’ll give us consent with a digital signature and then pay for treatment.
- Don't forget to use your discount code, if you have one
- This entire step is handled via text
3Download Somryst
After you’ve given consent and paid, you’ll receive an access code via text. After that, you’ll receive simple instructions on where and how to download the Somryst app, create an account, and use your access code to log in. From there, you can get started!

- You will need to have access to a mobile device (such as a smartphone or tablet) and an internet connection for the next 9 weeks

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to see a healthcare professional face-to-face in a telemedicine visit?
It depends on which state you live in. For some, you’ll need to have a live conversation. In others, you can provide information which they can review later.
Is this all legal and above board?
Of course. Telemedicine is a rapidly growing way of accessing healthcare, particularly in the midst of a global pandemic. All of our partner healthcare professionals are experienced, licensed to practice, and know how to diagnose chronic insomnia.
How quickly will a healthcare professional review my information?
It really depends on when you start the process. Sometimes you can arrange a same-day consultation.
Why do I need to fill out a form before I talk with a healthcare professional?
To help determine if you have chronic insomnia, our partner healthcare professionals will need to learn a little more about your experience with sleep every day. Think of it this way: filling out a quick form will make your visit faster and more efficient.
Do I have to pay for my appointment?
Yes. Each appointment costs $45.
When will I be charged for Somryst?
After you receive your prescription, you’ll receive some more information from our team at PearConnect via text. During that exchange, we’ll give you payment options.
Are there payment options?
We offer flexible payment options including 1-time payment, 3, 6 or 12 monthly payments.

Indications for Use
Somryst™ is a prescription-only digital therapeutic intended to provide a neurobehavioral intervention (CBT-I) to patients 22 years of age and older with chronic insomnia. Somryst treats patients with chronic insomnia by improving a patient’s insomnia symptoms.
Who Should Use Somryst?
You should use Somryst if you:
- Are 22 or older with chronic insomnia
- Are able to read and understand English
- Have regular access to a mobile device (such as smartphone or tablet)
- Are familiar with how to use mobile apps (applications)
- Are able to upload data periodically. (In other words, you have internet/wireless connection access.)

Who Should Not Use Somryst™ (Contraindications)
Somryst uses sleep restriction and consolidation, limiting the time you spend in bed to match the amount of time you sleep. Sleep restriction and consolidation may worsen preexisting medical conditions. Because of this, it is not appropriate for everyone.
If you have any following conditions or disorders, you should not use Somryst:
- Any disorder worsened by sleep restriction (e.g. bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, other psychotic spectrum disorders)
- Untreated obstructive sleep apnea
- Parasomnias
- Epilepsy
- If you are at high risk of falls
- If you are pregnant
- If you have any other unstable or degenerative illness judged to be worsened by sleep restriction delivered as part of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia
If you are unsure whether you have any of the conditions or disorders listed, speak with your Health Care Provider.
Safety Warnings
Somryst™ is not for everyone. You and your Health Care Provider should discuss whether Somryst is right for you.
- Somryst is not for emergency use. Please dial 911 or go to the nearest emergency room in the event of a medical emergency.
- Do not use Somryst to communicate severe or urgent information to your Health Care Provider.
- Somryst is not meant to be used as treatment except under supervision of your Health Care Provider.
- Somryst is not meant to be a substitution for any treatment medication.
- Somryst contains sensitive medical information about you. It is important that you protect your information by password-protecting your smartphone or tablet and ensuring no one else has access to your device.
-
Sleep Restriction (and Consolidation) within Somryst can cause sleepiness, especially in the early stages of using the PDT. Somryst should not be used if you need to be alert or cautious to avoid serious accidents in your job or daily life. Examples include:
— Long-haul truck drivers— Long-distance bus drivers— Air traffic controllers— Operators of heavy machinery— Some assembly line jobs
- The usage data collected in therapy lessons by Somryst are not intended to be used as a standalone assessment of treatment progress.
Note: In the early stages of treatment, increased daytime sleepiness may be expected, but is usually temporary. However, if these experiences do not go away over a few weeks, please consult your health care provider as you may have a sleep disorder or medical condition other than insomnia. Also, at any point in the treatment, if you have trouble staying awake while performing potentially dangerous tasks (like driving) avoid these tasks or stop following the sleep restriction component of the therapy. For best results with Somryst, read and follow the instructions provided in each core, and stay with the therapy until the end. When reporting your sleep results, giving honest and accurate answers is important.
Care Regimen and Self-care
Following your Health Care Provider’s instructions for care is always important. If you need help managing your condition, speak with your Health Care Provider.
