Short-term treatment of insomnia (difficulty falling asleep and/or frequent night awakenings)
How ZOLPIREST 5 Works
Zolpidem is a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic that enhances the effect of GABA at the GABA-A receptor (preferentially via BZ1/alpha-1 subunits). This reduces neuronal activity in the brain and promotes sleep onset and maintenance.
Dosage & Directions
Oral tablet. Take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily at bedtime, immediately before sleep. Take on an empty stomach for faster onset; allow 7–8 hours for sleep. Do not take a second dose in the same night.
Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
