Zopiclone is a hypnotic medication used for the short-term treatment of insomnia. It belongs to the class of drugs known as z-drugs and works by binding to GABA-A receptors in the brain, inducing a sedative effect and promoting sleep. It is indicated for patients who have difficulty falling asleep, wake up frequently during the night, or wake up too early in the morning.
Zopiclone is effective in reducing sleep latency (the time it takes to fall asleep) and increasing total sleep duration. It is recommended for short-term use, typically for a period of up to 2-4 weeks, to avoid the risk of dependence or tolerance.
Common side effects include a metallic or bitter taste, dry mouth, daytime drowsiness, dizziness, and, in rare cases, complex sleep-related behaviors such as sleepwalking or eating during sleep. Prolonged use may lead to dependence, and abrupt discontinuation can cause withdrawal symptoms such as rebound insomnia or anxiety.
Zopiclone should be taken as directed by a doctor, usually before bedtime, and should not be combined with alcohol or other sedatives. Patients should avoid activities requiring alertness, such as driving, until the effects of the medication have worn off.
