Zaleplon

Zaleplon is a medication used to help people fall asleep more quickly. It belongs to a class called sedative-hypnotics, which work by calming the brain to promote sleep. Typically prescribed for short-term use, it acts fast but doesn’t usually cause grogginess the next day. It’s important to follow your healthcare provider's directions, as Zaleplon can cause side effects like dizziness or sleep disturbances if misused. It is most effective when taken on an empty stomach right before bed. Overall, Zaleplon can improve sleep onset for those experiencing difficulty falling asleep.
