Lunesta (Eszopiclone) is a sedative prescribed to treat insomnia. Like all sedatives, Lunesta causes sleepiness and drowsiness by slowing down the body’s basic functions (heart rate and breathing). One can quickly and easily develop a strong tolerance for Lunesta, which makes it highly addictive. Visit the Lunesta Page for more information.
