Hydroxyzine should be administered temporarily, in case of severe sleep problems. It is worth remembering to keep the basic rules of sleep hygiene in the child, which include: - not using electronic devices (TV, tablet, smartphone) at least 1-2 hours before the planned time of falling asleep, - ensuring appropriate conditions in the bedroom - covering the windows, appropriate temperature (about 21-21 degrees Celsius), no distracting devices (e.g. flashing lights, toys that even make a quiet sound), - gradual muting of the child in the evening, avoiding excessive stimuli (e.g. loud, intense games) - ensuring an adequate amount of physical activity in the open air during the day, e.g. a visit to the playground. It is also worth trying to create an evening routine that will show the child that bedtime is approaching, e.g. plan a light dinner, evening toilet, reading a book and repeat it every evening. Forming proper sleep habits is crucial for the proper development of the child. I enclose an article in which we describe the problem of sleepless nights in adults, but many tips also apply to children: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/bezsennosc
