Standardization of Hypnotic Agents for Prevention of Falls: A Pharmacoeconomic Study
In this study, the standardization of insomnia treatment was evaluated by pharmacoeconomics. The costs of the hypnotic agents was considered, as was the cost of examination/treatment following falls. Effectiveness was evaluated as the incidence of falls within 24 hours of taking hypnotic agents. This analysis took the public healthcare payer's perspective. Propensity score matching based on patient background, showed that, per hospitalization the medicine costs of the recommended group increased by 1,020 yen, however, the examination/treatment costs following falls decreased by 487 yen when compared with the non-recommende...

Case report of acute liver injury caused by the eszopiclone in a patient with chronic liver disease
Rationale: Eszopiclone, sold under the brand name Lunesta, is a new type of non-benzodiazepine hypnotic. Eszopiclone is a zopiclone dextrorotation, which is classified as a cyclopyrrolone. It functions by binding gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors. Compared with benzodiazepines hypnotics, eszopiclone has higher selectivity for certain subunits of the GABA(A) receptor. So far, there are no reports about the elevation of serum enzymes or severe liver injury caused by eszopiclone. Here, we present a case report of acute liver injury following eszopiclone treatment in a patient with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV). ...
