Z-substances as sleeping pills – Beware of dangerous dependence – Health

“Demonizing sleeping pills also has negative consequences” – that was the headline of a recent article in the South German Newspaper Interviews appeared. Very interesting! I share the opinion of the colleague interviewed there that we in medicine must remain open to all scientifically based options. This also applies to the so-called Z-substances (zopiclone, zolpidem, eszopiclone, zaleplon) discussed in the interview.
