Abstract
The present work reviews the case reports of drug-induced sleep apnea recorded in the French pharmacovigilance database. Notifications are very rare (around 1/100 000 notifications). This paper shows that sleep apnea can be aggravated or revealed by some drugs. Main drugs involved were psychotropics (benzodiazepines, neuroleptics) and opioids.
