How Does Zaleplon Work?

The medication Zaleplon contains the active ingredient Zaleplon the same found in Sonata and belongs to a class of medications called nonbenzodiazepine hypnotics and works on the brain to induce sleepiness. The medication works by acting on specific receptors in the brain known as GABA-A receptors (Gamma-Amino Butyric Acid-A). Doing this causes the brain to release more of the GABA neurotransmitters in the brain. These neurotransmitters are known to act as a natural calming agent that provides the specific sedating effects that are needed to make you feel sleepy. This medicine provides assistance in keeping the activity of the nerve in balance to induce sleepiness, reduce overall anxiety, and relax muscles.
