AbstractThirty percent of Americans report insomnia. After eliminating obvious causes, the best therapy for insomnia is cognitive behavioral therapy, but this is not widely available.

Herein we review the information not only for insomnia but also for narcolepsy.Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
