Abstract

KEY POINTS
Insomnia in youth is highly prevalent, disruptive, and persistent.
Health care providers should consider sleep-wake patterns in all pediatric assessments.
Cognitive behavior interventions are the first-line treatment of insomnia, with evidence for efficacy
and safety in infants, as well as older children and adolescents.
The use of exogenous melatonin to treat pediatric insomnia is increasing, yet further evidence for
long-term safety is warranted.
