Indications & Clinical Uses

Zopiclone is a hypnotic agent used to treat sleep disorders.

  • Insomnia (difficulty initiating sleep): helps patients fall asleep faster.
  • Insomnia (difficulty maintaining sleep): reduces nighttime awakenings.
  • Short‑term sleep disturbance: provides temporary relief of sleep difficulty.

How It Works

  • Zopiclone acts as a positive allosteric modulator at the GABA‑A receptor complex, binding to a distinct site and enhancing the inhibitory effect of GABA. This potentiation increases chloride ion influx, leading to neuronal hyperpolarisation and a reduction in central nervous system activity, which promotes sleep onset and maintenance.

Side Effects

Zopiclone may cause a range of adverse reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Drowsiness or fatigue.
  • Dry mouth.
  • Bitter or metallic taste.
  • Headache.
  • Dizziness.
  • Nausea or abdominal discomfort.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling.
  • Complex sleep behaviours (e.g., sleepwalking, sleep‑driving).
  • Memory impairment or amnesia.
  • Mood changes including depression or suicidal thoughts.
  • Respiratory depression, especially when combined with other depressants.
  • Severe hypotension.

Precautions & Warnings

Zopiclone should be used with caution and under medical supervision.

  • Assess sleep duration: limit use to short‑term periods as recommended by a clinician.
  • Evaluate concomitant CNS depressants: avoid combining with alcohol or other sedatives.
  • Monitor for abnormal behaviours: watch for sleepwalking or other complex activities.
  • Review renal or hepatic impairment: dose adjustment may be required.
  • Store at ambient temperature (below 25°C): keep in the original pack, protect from moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Zopiclone can interact with several drug classes.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Alcohol: may cause profound sedation and respiratory depression.
  • Opioids: additive central nervous system depression increasing risk of overdose.
  • Other CNS depressants (e.g., antihistamines, benzodiazepines): can lead to excessive sedation.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, erythromycin): may raise plasma levels of Zopiclone.
  • CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampicin, carbamazepine): may reduce therapeutic effect.
  • Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): may increase risk of abnormal sleep behaviours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Imomed contains the hypnotic agent Zopiclone and is used for the short‑term treatment of insomnia. It helps adults who have difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep to achieve a more restorative sleep pattern.

Zopiclone binds to a specific site on the GABA‑A receptor complex, acting as a positive allosteric modulator. By enhancing GABA‑mediated chloride influx, it increases neuronal inhibition, which promotes sleep initiation and maintenance.

The appropriate dose of Imomed is determined by a qualified prescriber based on the individual’s medical condition, age, and response to therapy. Patients should follow the prescribing information provided by their healthcare professional.

Safety of Zopiclone in pregnancy or while breastfeeding has not been definitively established. Healthcare providers usually weigh potential benefits against possible risks before prescribing it to pregnant or nursing individuals.

To order Imomed, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Imomed (Zopiclone) belongs to the cyclopyrrolone class, offering a rapid onset of sleep with a relatively short half‑life. Compared with benzodiazepines, it has a lower risk of dependence but shares similar sedative properties; choice of therapy depends on patient profile and clinician judgment.

Imomed tablets should be stored at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C, in their original packaging to protect them from moisture and light. Keep the product out of reach of children and do not use after the expiry date.

Imomed is taken orally, usually as a single tablet shortly before bedtime. The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and taken only when a full night’s sleep is possible.

Serious risks include complex sleep behaviours such as sleepwalking or sleep‑driving, severe allergic reactions, profound respiratory depression (especially when combined with other depressants), and significant mood changes like depression or suicidal thoughts. Immediate medical attention is required if any of these occur.

Imomed is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to Zopiclone, severe hepatic impairment, or those who have experienced complex sleep behaviours with similar agents. It should also be avoided in patients taking other strong central nervous system depressants without medical supervision.
