- Treatment of Insomnia With Traditional Chinese Medicine Presents a Promising Prospect Boyi Zhang Qianqian Wang Yuhang Zhang Hanyu Wang Jingyu Kang Yandi Zhu Baiyan Wang Shuying Feng Phytotherapy Research ABSTRACTInsomnia, a prevalent sleep disorder, significantly impacts global health. While Western medications provide temporary relief, their risks of dependency and cognitive impairment have spurred the search for safer alternatives. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offers a promising approach to treating insomnia by focusing on harmonizing the balance of Yin and Yang and the functions of internal organs. This review explores recent research advances in TCM for insomnia treatment, integrating classical theories with modern scientific understanding of key pathological mechanisms, including neurotransmitter regulation (GABA, monoamines), immune‐inflammatory responses, the HPA axis, and interactions with the gut microbiota. Growing clinical evidence supports the effectiveness of classical TCM prescriptions and treatments like acupuncture in improving sleep quality, particularly when combined with Western medications to enhance efficacy and reduce dependency. However, TCM also has its limitations. Future research directions should focus on modernizing TCM applications, addressing comorbidities associated with insomnia, exploring the role of gut microbiota, and optimizing medicinal and edible homologous products. By integrating traditional knowledge with cutting‐edge technologies, TCM holds great potential for advancing personalized and effective insomnia treatments globally. 10.1002/ptr.8495 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor
