I recently read a piece in Scientific American about drugs working better at different times of day because of circadian rhythms. I found it interesting. The article is behind a paywall. Some of the “more to explore” stuff from the article is not quite as tied up.

What happens to people who don’t have normal circadian rhythms? Such as babies, teenagers, the old, shift workers and facebook addicts.
