It is the active stereoisomer of Zopiclone with similar hypnotic effects as benzodiazepines. Used for insomnia. Oral administration before bedtime.
Since the last update we have not found published data on the excretion of Eszopiclone in breastmilk.
Zopiclone is excreted in breast milk in clinically non-significant amount.(Mathieu 2010, Matheson 1990, Gaillot 1983 & 1982)
No problems have been observed in infants whose mothers have taken Zopiclone. (Mathieu 2010, Matheson 1990)
Expert authors consider the use of Zopiclone possible during lactation. (Hale, Uguz 2021)
