Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" In the operating room, anxiety and comfort were moderate and did not differ significantly between groups on a 1-10 scale (median [25-75 percentile]): zopiclone: 2 [1-4] and 2."5.20Sedative premedication before surgery--A multicentre randomized study versus placebo. ( Alberti, C; Aveline, C; Beydon, L; Bildea, A; Bruna, J; Camut, N; Chrétien, JM; Daniel, V; Darsonval, A; Dupoiron, D; Liu, N; Malinovsky, JM; Marret, E; Rault, L; Rouxel, A; Schinkel, N, 2015)
"We evaluated racemic zopiclone, its (S)- and (R)-enantiomers and a metabolite, (S)-desmethylzopiclone, for their actions on locomotor activity, rotarod performance, the elevated plus maze and the Vogel conflict test of anxiety, and electroconvulsive shock-induced seizures duration."3.71Sedative and anxiolytic effects of zopiclone's enantiomers and metabolite. ( Carlson, JN; Glick, SD; Haskew, R; Jerussi, TP; Maisonneuve, IM; Wacker, J, 2001)
"Zopiclone was associated with feelings of being troubled, tense, antagonistic and bored whereas temazepam produced drowsiness, clumsiness, dreaminess and sadness."2.66Subjective effects during administration and on discontinuation of zopiclone and temazepam in normal subjects. ( Frcka, G; Lader, M, 1987)
"Zopiclone was slightly superior to nitrazepam but was inferior both to flurazepam and flunitrazepam."2.65Comparative study of zopiclone, a novel hypnotic, and three benzodiazepines. ( Giercksky, KE; Wickstrøm, E, 1980)
"Zopiclone has a chiral centre, and demonstrates stereoselective pharmacokinetics."2.40Metabolism of anxiolytics and hypnotics: benzodiazepines, buspirone, zoplicone, and zolpidem. ( Chouinard, G; Lefko-Singh, K; Teboul, E, 1999)
