MeSHD019454

Chronotherapy, also called chronotherapeutics[1] or chronotherapeutic drug delivery,[2] refers to the use of circadian or other rhythmic cycles of a condition's symptoms and/or of the individual being treated in the application of therapy.[2] Examples of this are treatments of psychiatric and somatic diseases that are administered according to a schedule that corresponds to these rhythms in order to maximize effectiveness and minimize side effects of the therapy.[3]

Chronotherapy is used in various clinical fields such as the treatments of asthma,[4][5][non-primary source needed] hypertension,[6] and bipolar disorder[7][8].

In the treatment of psychiatric conditions including bipolar depression[9][10], a form of chronotherapy combining intermittent sleep deprivation and morning bright light has shown efficacy and relative tolerability in a number of controlled studies.[11][12][13]
