Sedative-Hypnotic Visual Decision Aid



What would happen if 100 people over 60 years of age take sleeping tablets for more than a week?

 - Green: These 7 people sleep better, which means they get an extra 25 minutes sleep a night! They also wake up once less every two nights.

 - White: For at least 76 people the tablets do NOTHING good or bad.

 - Red: These 17 people have side effects. One of them may be serious like a fall or car crash.
