Hi,

Probably, he may be suffering from narcolepsy or sleep apnea or restless leg syndrome or hepatic failure with hepatic encephalopathy.

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Please get examined for liver function tests, serum ammonia, blood urea and serum creatinine.

Use tablet Levocetirizine. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
