Hypnite (Eszopiclone) Buyer and Patient Handbook in Singapore

What is Hypnite?

Hypnite is a short-acting hypnotic medication belonging to the non-benzodiazepine class, used to treat Insomnia. It helps people who have difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. In Singapore, the product is authorised by the Health Sciences Authority and is supplied as an oral pill.

Who Should Use Hypnite?

• Adults with diagnosed difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep.
• Individuals whose sleep disturbance is not caused by another untreated medical condition.
• Patients who can take medication for up to 4 weeks without requiring long-term therapy.

How Does It Work?

Hypnite enhances the activity of the neurotransmitter GABA by binding to the same receptor site as benzodiazepines, but with a different chemical structure. This increases the brain’s inhibitory signals, leading to faster sleep onset and shorter night-time awakenings. It is not habit-forming when used as directed, but misuse can cause dependence.

Why Choose Hypnite?

• Rapid onset: Sleep can begin within 30 minutes of taking the pill.
• Predictable duration: The drug’s effect usually wears off after 7-8 hours, reducing morning grogginess.
• Generic value: As a brand name, Hypnite offers consistent quality, while generic equivalents containing eszopiclone provide cost savings. Off-label use (e.g., for Anxiety) should only be considered after professional consultation.

Dosage, Administration, Lifestyle and Dietary Recommendations

Recommended Dosage

• 1 mg - starting dose for women or patients sensitive to sedatives.
• 2 mg - most common dose for adults.
• 3 mg - reserved for patients who do not achieve adequate sleep at lower doses.

How to Take

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water right before bedtime. Avoid taking it with a heavy meal; a light snack is acceptable. Do not operate machinery or drive until you are fully alert after waking.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember provided there are at least 4 hours left before your intended bedtime. If it is almost time for sleep, skip the missed dose and resume your regular schedule the next night.

Overdose

Call emergency services (995 in Singapore) if you suspect an overdose. Symptoms may include severe Drowsiness, confusion, or difficulty breathing. Prompt medical attention is essential.

Special Populations

• Elderly: Start at 1 mg; monitor for increased falls risk.
• Renal impairment: Dose reduction may be required; consult a health professional.

Precautions and Warnings

Do not combine Hypnite with other central nervous system depressants (e.g., antihistamines, opioids). Patients with a history of Depression, substance misuse, or severe liver disease should discuss alternatives. Sudden discontinuation after prolonged use may cause rebound insomnia; tapering is advised.
