Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Insomnia is usually treated with a combination of medication and cognitive behavioral therapy. Medication can help with short term relief, but cognitive behavioral therapy helps address and change thoughts and behaviors that perpetuate insomnia in the long term. Surgery, melatonin injections, and continuous positive airway pressure device are not typically used for the treatment of insomnia.
