Other than hypnotic effect, zopiclone also shows anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, and myorelaxant properties. Following a single oral dose of zopiclone, it is rapidly absorbed with the bioavailability of around 80% and distributed to places such as brain tissues, salivary glands, breast milk, and placenta. Zopiclone undergoes extensive metabolism and it is excreted in urine, breast milk, and saliva (excretion half-life is approximately 5 hrs.). Manufacturers such as Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma Co. Ltd. (Lunesta), Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd., Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Inc., Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC, and others offer drugs in this market.

U.S. FDA also approved a new generic drug for insomnia, Ramelteon, which was launched by Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories in July 2019. The drug belongs to the class of melatonin receptor agonists while zopiclone belongs to the class of GABA receptor agonists.
