Zopiclone 10 mg Tablets are a higher-strength prescription medication used for the short-term treatment of severe insomnia and other serious sleep disturbances. As a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic, Zopiclone works by affecting GABA receptors in the brain, producing a calming effect that helps initiate and maintain deep, restful sleep.

This 10 mg dosage is generally prescribed when lower doses (3.75 mg or 7.5 mg) are not effective, and only under strict medical supervision.
