Abstract

Herbal Drugs and Sleep: What can we Expect?

Antonio Joaquín Gomis Devesa, Alfonso Martínez Martínez and Juan José Ortega-Albás

Herbal drugs are increasingly being used in our setting as an alternative to, or to supplement, the conventional medication used in sleep disorders. By reviewing different herbal drugs, a description of their therapeutic and adverse effects is established in order to recognise them in a sleep unit and thus be able to establish a more effective approach to them.
