Patients diagnosed with essential tremor (ET) report frequent sleep complaints. This review focuses on the main findings of studies addressing sleep features in patients diagnosed with ET, updating previously reported information. Bad quality of sleep and excessive daytime somnolence are very frequent in patients with ET, although the effects of the drugs used for the therapy of ET could contribute to these complaints. REM sleep behavior disorder, restless legs, insomnia, and nocturia are frequent complaints as well. There is a lack of studies addressing polysomnographic features of ET.
