Lunesta - Lunestra

Eszopiclone - Zopiclone - Lunesta - Lunestra 

I'm including this information on Lunesta for insomnia - somnia- (sleep disorder) and do not encourage anyone to take it.  The side effects and adverse reactions of drugs like this can cause silent dmaage to the liver and/or kidneys and other organs. If you do take this drug know all the risks.

Lunesta®  also known as (eszopiclone) is a prescription sleep medicine used in adults for the treatment of a sleep problem called insomnia. Symptoms of insomnia include trouble having falling asleep and waking up often throughout the night.

This is the Lunesta - Lunestra drug information from their instructions.

What you should know. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:
LUNESTA helps you fall asleep quickly, so it take it right before bed. Be sure you have at least eight hours to devote to sleep before becoming active. Until you know how you will react to LUNESTA, you should not drive or operate machinery. Do not take LUNESTA with alcohol. Call your doctor if your insomnia - somnia worsens or is not better within 7 to 10 days. This may mean that there is another condition causing your sleep problems. Call your doctor right away if after taking LUNESTRA you walk, drive, eat or engage in other activities while asleep.

In rare cases, severe allergic reactions can occur. Most sleep medications carry some risk of dependency. Do not use sleep medicines for extended periods without first talking to your doctor. Side effects may include unpleasant taste, headache, drowsiness and dizziness. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA.  For more information, please see the LUNESTA Medication Guide.
