What is sundowning, and how is it treated?

The term “sundowning” is often used to describe the regular occurrence of distress and agitation in the late afternoon or evening. Sundowning can continue into the night, making it hard for people with Alzheimer’s to fall asleep and stay in bed.

If sundowning continues to be a problem, seek medical advice. A medical exam may identify the cause of sundowning, such as pain, a sleep disorder, illnesses, or a medication side effect.
