Zopiclone

Uses

Zopiclone is used for the treatment of insomnia.

How it Works

How Zopiclone works Zopiclone is a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic with both hypnotic and anxiolytic properties. It functions by modulating the GABA receptor, which helps to relax the nerves and brain. This mechanism aids in facilitating sleep.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Zopiclone include taste changes, drowsiness, headache, fatigue, and dry mouth.

Expert Advice

  • Your doctor has prescribed Zopiclone to help you fall asleep faster and sleep for longer.
  • It is best taken without food, as a high-fat meal can reduce its absorption and effectiveness.
  • Take it 30 to 45 minutes before bedtime and only when you have time to sleep for at least 7 hours.
  • It may cause dizziness the next morning; avoid driving or performing tasks that require concentration until you know how it affects you.
  • Zopiclone does not affect total sleep time; however, it reduces sleep onset time and the frequency of awakenings at night.
  • Never share your medication with anyone else who has a sleep problem.
  • It may cause a bitter taste or dry mouth; try sipping water, and inform your doctor if it bothers you.
  • Inform your doctor if your sleep does not improve after 7 to 10 days of treatment.
  • Stop taking the medication and inform your doctor if you experience sleep driving or memory loss.
  • Inform your doctor if you are on depression medication while starting treatment with Zopiclone.
  • Do not stop taking the medication suddenly, as it may lead to anxiety, mood changes, and restlessness.
