Does Zopiclone Affect Blood Pressure? 

Zopiclone does not usually affect blood pressure directly.
However, in some cases, it may cause slight changes due to its calming effect on the body.

Zopiclone is a sleeping tablet used to treat short-term insomnia.
It works by relaxing brain activity so you can fall asleep faster.
