Abstract
Only few studies have investigated pharmacologic treatment for juvenile PTSD. Antiadrenergic agents are an interesting option, because of an autonomic nervous system hyperactivation in PTSD. Prazosin, an α-1 antagonist, has proven its efficacy in an adult population. In the pediatric population, few data support its use for nightmares and sleep disturbances in PTSD. We aim to assess the efficacy and safety of prazosin in a pediatric population.
