Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Melatonin stimulates its mechanism of action by acting on the melatonin receptors in the central nervous system. Stimulation of these receptors can promote sleep by regulating the sleep/wake rhythm. Zolpidem is a non-benzodiazepine Z medicine. It acts as a sedative and hypnotic by acting on the GABA(gamma-Aminobutyric Acid) Receptors in the central nervous system. GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter that reduces the excessive activity between nerve cells and produces a calming effect. This can prevent insomnia and lead to more restful sleep.

  • Interaction with antipsychotic medicines like chlorpromazine can increase the effect of this Zolsoma 10 mg Tab.

Interactions with food items
