Can Zopiclone Be Taken To Induce Sleep?

Hi, my girlfriend has the flu and is considering taking a night nurse before going to bed. However, on certain nights she also takes zopiclone if something important is happening the next day. This is the case tomorrow. My question is, can she still take a zopiclone in case she doesn t fall asleep after having taken a night nurse?

Hello! Acetaminophen and zopiclone are drugs that belongs to different classes, the first analgesic/antipiretic, the second hypnotic/sedative. They have different pharmacokynetics and pharmacodynamics, and there are no interactions found. She can take both drugs safely.
Kind regards
