Question

Should children with occasional night terrors need treatment?

Answer

Avoid overexcitement and fatigue during the day, arrange a well-balanced lifestyle, eliminate various factors that affect sleep, and develop a regular sleep habit. Medications such as benzodiazepines and Luminal can be administered, and there are reports that amitriptyline is effective. Acupuncture can target points like Anmian and Neiguan.
