| Zolpidem Usage And Synthesis |
Description | Zolpidem hemitamwe is a non-benzodiazepine hypnotic with specific agonist activity at
type 1 benzodiazepine receptors, and is indicated for use in insomnia and other sleep
disorders. Structurally zolpidem belongs to a chemically distinct class, thus lacking the
side-effects and abuse potential of classical benzodiazepines. It is currently being studied
as a pre-operative sedative. | Description | Zolpidem (Item No. 15792) is an analytical reference material that is functionally categorized as a sedative. It is a non-benzodiazepine drug that is used in the treatment of insomnia, and it has been recreationally abused. This product is intended for research and forensic applications. | Description | Zolpidem (Item No. 20648) is a certified reference material that is functionally categorized as a sedative. It is a non-benzodiazepine drug that is used in the treatment of insomnia, and it has been recreationally abused. This product is intended for research and forensic applications. | Chemical Properties | Off-White Solid | Originator | Synthelabo (France) | Uses | A selective benzodiazepine receptor agonist not related chemically to benzodiazepines | Uses | A selective non-benzodiazepine GABAA receptor agonist. Sedative, hypnotic.
Controlled substance (depresssant). | Definition | ChEBI: An imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine compound having a 4-tolyl group at the 2-position, an N,N-dimethylcarbamoylmethyl group at the 3-position and a methyl substituent at the 6-position. | Brand name | Ambien (Sanofi Aventis);Stilnox. | General Description | Zolpidem (Ambien, an imidazopyridine) andeszopiclone (Lunesta, a cyclopyrrolone) are nonbenzodiazepinesand have been introduced as short- and moderate-acting hypnotics, respectively. Zolpidem exhibits ahigh selectivity for the α1 subunit of benzodiazepinebindingsite on GABAA receptor complex, whereas eszopicloneis a “superagonist” at BzRs with the subunitcomposition α1β2γ2 and α1β2γ3. Zolpidem has a rapidonset of action of 1.6 hours and good bioavailability(72%), mainly because it is lipophilic and has no ionizablegroups at physiological pH. Food can prolong the time topeak concentration without affecting the half-life probablyfor the same reason. It has short elimination half-life, becauseits aryl methyl groups is extensively α-hydroxylatedto inactive metabolites by CYP3A4 followed by furtheroxidation by aldehyde dehydrogenase to the ionic carboxylicacid. The metabolites are inactive, short-lived, andeliminated in the urine. Its half-life in the elderly or the patientswith liver disease is increased. Therefore, dosingshould be modified in patients with hepatic insufficiencyand the elderly. Because it has longer elimination half-lifethan zaleplon, it may be preferred for sleep maintenance.It was the most commonly prescribed drug for insomniain 2001. |
