Zaleplon Information:

• What

What is zaleplon?

Zaleplon is a fast-acting sedative that may be used to treat insomnia characterized by difficulty falling asleep at night. If you normally fall asleep quickly but frequently wake up in the middle of the night and have difficulty falling back asleep, talk to your doctor about other treatment options. You should never take the zaleplon drug unless you have time to get a full night’s sleep.

• How

How do I take zaleplon?

Because zaleplon begins to work quickly, you should take it immediately before your normal bedtime. Follow your doctor’s dosage instructions carefully, and never take this medication for longer or at a higher dosage than it has been prescribed. Extended or high dose use can lead to unpleasant withdrawal symptoms.

• Precautions

Before taking zaleplon, tell your doctor if:

• You are allergic to this or any other medications
• You are taking any other prescription or non-prescription drugs or supplements
• You have a history of substance abuse
• You have a history of mental illness or suicidal thoughts
• You have kidney or liver disease
• You have very high or low blood pressure
• You have breathing problems such as asthma, COPD, or sleep apnea
• You are breastfeeding, pregnant, or trying to become pregnant
• Side Effects

What are the possible side effects of taking zaleplon?

In rare cases, people have performed activities while not fully awake (such as talking on the phone, driving, or eating) after taking zaleplon. If you know or suspect this has happened to you, or if you experience unusual mood or behavior changes, memory problems, or breathing problems, call your doctor as soon as possible. Common side effects that only need medical attention if they become severe may include next-day drowsiness, dizziness, headache, upset stomach, constipation, or dry mouth.

 

• Missed Dose

What if I forget to take a dose of zaleplon?

Since zaleplon is taken on an as-needed basis before bed, missing a dose is not an issue.

• Storage

How do I store zaleplon?

Keep zaleplon in a tightly-sealed, light-blocking container. Store it at room temperature, and avoid exposing the medication to moisture. Do not leave it anywhere that children or pets can easily access.

• Overdose

What happens if I overdose on zaleplon?

Overdosing on zaleplon may lead to impaired coordination, slow or shallow breathing, confusion, or loss of consciousness. If you or someone in your household has overdosed, call 911 immediately.

• Additional Info

Warnings

Zaleplon may be less effective if taken within two hours of a high-fat meal. You should not take it with alcohol or any other medications that cause drowsiness, as this increases your risk of side effects. Do not take zaleplon before short naps or in any situation where you might be awakened before getting at least four hours of sleep (such as during a long plane flight). Waking up before the effects of the medication have worn off can lead to short-term memory problems. If you still feel drowsy the morning after taking zaleplon, avoid driving until you know you can do so safely.
