Abstract
|
|
|
Sleep related eating disorder (SRED) is a parasomnia with recurrent episodes of involuntary eating during an arousal from nighttime sleep with adverse consequences. The mechanism of SRED is still uncertain but it has been suggested to be related to dopaminergic dysfunction. A few cases of SREDs in association with zolpidem have been reported worldwide, but not yet reported in Korea. We report zolpidem-induced SRED in a patient with underlying restless leg syndrome, periodic leg movement and obstructive sleep apnea
