To quantify health care resource utilization (HCRU) and costs associated with insomnia treated with commonly prescribed insomnia medications among patients with depression. A retrospective cohort study was conducted using IBM MarketScan Commercial and Medicare Supplemental Databases to identify adults with: (1) ≥1 ICD-9/ICD-10 code for depression; (2) ≥1 commonly prescribed medication for insomnia (zolpidem immediate release [IR], zolpidem extended release [ER], trazodone, or benzodiazepines); and (3) ≥12 months of eligibility before and after initiating insomnia medication. A 1:1 age- and sex-matched control cohort with depression but without sleep-related disorders was identified. Adjusted HCRU and costs were compared using generalized linear models. A total of 21,027 patients (mean age = 48.3 years, 69.5% female) with depression and treated insomnia (D + TI; 1.9% zolpidem ER, 32.0% zolpidem IR, 50.0% trazodone, 16.1% benzodiazepines) were matched to controls. Although mean number of inpatient visits were similar (0.1 for both), relative to controls, D + TI had a higher mean number of ED (0.2 vs 0.1,  p  &lt; .001) and outpatient visits (2.2 vs 1.3,  p  &lt; .001). Adjusted total costs per patient per month were higher among D + TI patients ($2450 vs $1095,  p  &lt; .001). Inpatient and ED costs were higher among patients prescribed zolpidem IR, trazodone, or benzodiazepines, but not zolpidem ER. Relative to controls with depression but without sleep disorders, overall, health care costs for adults with D + TI were 2.2-fold higher; costs and HCRU varied by insomnia medication. Further study of the impact of newer insomnia treatments on patient outcomes in depression and comorbid insomnia is warranted.
