How Zolpidem Works

Zolpidem acts on calming chemical pathways in the brain, including GABA-related activity. This produces a sedative effect that helps promote sleep.

Possible Side Effects

Common side effects may include:

• Drowsiness or sleepiness
• Dizziness
• Headache
• Dry mouth
• Metallic or bitter taste
• Reduced alertness

Contact a healthcare professional if side effects are severe, persistent or unusual.

Important Information

Zolpidem should be used for the shortest appropriate period because tolerance, dependence and withdrawal symptoms can develop with continued use. UK guidance states that treatment is generally limited to a few days or weeks and should not normally exceed four weeks.

Take zolpidem exactly as directed by your healthcare professional. Do not take more than the prescribed amount. Allow at least 8 hours of sleep after taking it before carrying out activities requiring full alertness.

Avoid alcohol while taking zolpidem because it can increase sedation and make it difficult to wake. Do not drive, cycle or operate machinery if you feel sleepy or less alert.
