Belbien Zolpidem 10 mg

Description

Belbien Zolpidem 10mg is a well-known medication in the treatment of short-term insomnia. It helps patients to fall asleep faster during the night and stay asleep throughout, treating sleep disorders, which are very distressing for daily life. Belbien is essential in the need for a strong solution for sleep disorders.

Active Ingredient and Classification

The active component of Belbien Zolpidem 10mg is Zolpidem Tartrate. It is a sedative-hypnotic, a class of drugs which causes sleep by depressing the activity of the brain.

Indications and Uses

Belbien Zolpidem 10mg is indicated for the short-term treatment of insomnia, particularly in patients who find it hard to initiate sleep. It may also be used for other off-label purposes under the supervision of a licensed health professional.

Dosage and Administration

One Belbien Zolpidem 10mg tablet is recommended for oral administration just before sleeping. For the best result, this drug should be taken on an empty stomach, as if taken with food, the initiation of sleep may be delayed.

 

Patients should ensure they can get a full 7-8 hours of sleep after taking Belbien. The medication should not be taken without at least 7 to 8 hours of remaining sleep time as next-day drowsiness and memory problems are otherwise likely to occur. In the elderly patient or those with hepatic impairment, a dose as low as 5mg is usually prescribed to minimize the potential for side effects.

 

It is important not to take more than one dose per night and not to take more than the prescribed amount in one night. Overusing Zolpidem increases the risk of dependence and very serious side effects.

 

Belbien is usually indicated for short-term use, usually from 7 to 10 days. As with most other benzodiazepines, the dosage of Belbien should be gradually withdrawn if it was administered for a long period before it can be fully stopped to prevent withdrawal symptoms. Additionally, the patient must avoid drinking alcohol and taking other central nervous system depressants while also taking Belbien because these can potentiate its sedating effects and result in more serious side effects.

Mechanism of Action

Zolpidem works by increasing the action of GABA, a neurotransmitter that suppresses brain activity. This results in a sedative effect that gives rise to sleep, which makes individuals fall asleep within a very short time and remain asleep throughout the night.

Side Effects

Most common side effects of Belbien Zolpidem 10mg are dizziness, drowsiness, and feeling drugged or hungover the next day. Serious side effects like memory loss, hallucinations, or allergic reactions should be reported by patients at once to a health professional.

 

Belbien should be used with caution in patients with a history of depression, substance use, or liver disorders. It is not safe to be used during pregnancy and breast-feeding. The concomitant use of zolpidem with alcohol or other CNS depressants proves to be dangerous and should not be used.

Storage Instructions

Storage should be done at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Keep the medicine out of the children’s reach to avoid accidental swallowing by children. Belbien Zolpidem 10mg is one such class of drugs belonging to the group called sedative-hypnotics used to correct short-term sleep disorders. The medication taken as prescribed helps restore good sleep, which in the long run reflects positively on their overall health status.
