What is Lunesta?

Lunesta is a prescription medicine given to adults to treat insomnia. Insomnia is a sleep disorder that makes it hard for you to fall or stay asleep. It can make you lose hours of sleep each night and can even stop you from getting any sleep at all. The disorder has a wide range of possible causes and these can vary widely from person to person. Insomnia can be caused by health problems, like sleep apnea, heart conditions, asthma, hormone problems, and chronic pain. It can also be caused by mental health problems, like depression and anxiety. Medications, recreational drugs, alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine can all cause it. As can stress and worry.

You can tackle your insomnia by understanding what causes it for you, and then addressing these problems. But at times, insomnia can feel overwhelming and impossible to overcome. Medications like Lunesta can help. If you have insomnia, your doctor may have prescribed Lunesta to you. It is a medication you take as a tablet you swallow before bed. It helps to calm areas of your brain, helping you to fall and stay asleep. Lunesta is for short-term use only, usually from 7 to 10 days.

Lunesta active ingredients

The active ingredient in Lunesta is called eszopiclone. It is a sedative-hypnotic that can help you fall and stay asleep. Eszopiclone works by increasing the effectiveness of a substance in your body called GABA (gamma amino butyric acid) that can reduce the activity in parts of your brain.

When you take Lunesta, the eszopiclone it contains attaches to cells in your brain (called neurons) at sites on their surface called GABA receptors. This makes the GABA receptors more sensitive to GABA, helping to reduce activity in the parts of your brain that can keep you awake.

Lunesta side effects & Lunesta drug interactions

The most common side effects caused by Lunesta include:

• Drowsiness
• Dizziness

In rare instances, Lunesta can cause more serious side effects, like:

• Engaging in complex behaviors while asleep that you are unaware of, including sleepwalking, making and eating food, having sex, talking on the phone, or driving a car. You may not remember doing these activities when you wake in the morning, and they can be risky or harmful.
• Memory loss and other memory problems.
• An increased risk of falls due to side effects like drowsiness and dizziness.

Lunesta can interact with other medications. Tell your prescribing doctor about all drugs you are taking, particularly:

• Any sleeping pills

• Any medications that contain alcohol, including over-the-counter cough medicines
• Any opioid medications taken to relieve pain
• Any antibiotics taken to treat a bacterial infection, including rifampicin, clarithromycin, or telithromycin
• Any antiviral medications taken to treat a viral infection
• Any antifungal medications taken to treat a fungal infection, including ketoconazole and itraconazole
• A mediation called olanzapine, used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar disorder

If you are unsure if you are taking any of these, take the packaging of all your medications and supplements to your doctor or pharmacist.
