Active ingredients

The drug STILNOCT contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1 Zolpidem UNII WY6W63843K - ZOLPIDEM TARTRATE

Zolpidem is an imidazopyridine which preferentially binds the omega-1 receptor subtype (also known as the benzodiazepine-1 subtype) which corresponds to GABA-A receptors containing the alpha-1 sub-unit, whereas benzodiazepines non-selectively bind both omega-1 and omega-2 subtypes. The modulation of the chloride anion channel via this receptor leads to the specific sedative effects demonstrated by zolpidem. These effects are reversed by the benzodiazepine antagonist flumazenil.
