Sleeping Pills
Sleeping pills are mostly safe to get a night’s sleep when you have difficulty sleeping, but they do have potentially harmful risks and side effects. Prescription sleep aids must be taken under a doctor’s supervision, as they can be unsafe with some underlying medical conditions, and overdosing can be very dangerous.
What other drugs could interact with this medication?
- stop taking one of the medications,
- change one of the medications to another,
- change how you are taking one or both of the medications, or
- leave everything as is.
An interaction between two medications does not always mean that you must stop taking one of them. Speak to your doctor about how any drug interactions are being managed or should be managed.
Medications other than those listed above may interact with this medication. Tell your doctor or prescriber about all prescription, over-the-counter (non-prescription), and herbal medications you are taking. Also, tell them about any supplements you take. Since caffeine, alcohol, the nicotine from cigarettes, or street drugs can affect the action of many medications, you should let your prescriber know if you use them.
Can you take sleeping pills while nursing?
If OTC sleep aids containing these active ingredients are used, their use should be limited, and the infant should be monitored for drowsiness. According to the College of Family Physicians of Canada, antihistamines can safely be used while breastfeeding, and only minimal amounts passes into breast milk.

Zopiclone should not be used in children and adolescents less than 18 years. The safe and effective dose has not yet been established.
Patients with hepatic insufficiency:
As elimination of zopiclone may be reduced in patients with hepatic dysfunction, a lower dose of 3.75mg zopiclone nightly is recommended. The standard dose of 7.5mg zopiclone may be used with caution in some cases, depending on effectiveness and acceptability.

Transient Insomnia 2-5 days.

Treatment with zopiclone should be as short as possible. Generally the duration of treatment varies from a few days to two weeks with a maximum, including the tapering off, of four weeks.
In certain cases an extension beyond the maximum treatment period may be necessary; if so it should take place after re-evaluation of the patient’s status. (see warnings on dependence and tolerance in section 4.4)
Method of administration:
Oral. Each film-coated tablet should be swallowed whole without sucking, chewing, or breaking just before retiring for the night.
