Program Description

Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) is a chronic neurological disorder that has significant impacts on daily functioning, with symptoms that include, but often go beyond excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS).

Overall awareness about IH remains low, which contributes to the suboptimal recognition of this condition, which is often exacerbated by insufficient diagnostic criteria leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment.

Until recently, there was no FDA approved treatment option for IH, and historically, although IH is not the same as narcolepsy, the same treatment options were offered, leading to suboptimal treatment response and exacerbation of disease burden. Recent advances, with a new option now approved and other agents in development, can help close some of the current gaps.

This symposium will offer expert perspectives on the impact of IH, as well as best practices and advances for its screening, diagnosis, and treatment.
