Four levels of evidence were envisaged: standard, recommended, optional and not recommended. for diagnosing of insomnia, psychosocial and polysomnographic investigation were recommended. for non-pharmacological treatment, cognitive behavioral treatment was considered to be standard, while for pharmacological treatment, zolpidem was indicated as the standard drug because of its hypnotic profile, while zopiclone, trazodone and doxepin were recommended. |
