Zopiclone ZOP (Zimovane) US$ 1.15 ea

Package Size: 100ct (Full Pack)
Available Strengths: 7.5mg

Zopiclone is converted in the body to eszopiclone, the drug sold as Lunesta in the USA. Because the pharma companies could not patent the original zopiclone, they patented an intermidiate metabolite instead. However 7.5mg of Zopiclone yields 3.75mg of eszopiclone, which is more than the maximum strength of Lunesta (3mg). Therefore Zopiclone is a much superior drug to Lunesta. (Source: wikipedia)
