Imovane Australia is used to treat sleeping problems, also known as insomnia. This medicine can help you fall asleep quickly and reduce the number of times you wake up during the night. It is usually taken for short periods (e.g. 7-14 days), but long-term use is not recommended.
The usual dose of Imovane for adults is one tablet just before you go to bed. If you are older than 65 years, the dose is half a tablet. Do not take this medicine if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you have a liver or kidney problem.
Do not take this Imovane 7.5 mg medicine if you have any of the following: an allergy to any of the ingredients in this leaflet, or any other substances including foods, dyes, or preservatives; asthma, hayfever or breathing problems; if you have ever had a snoring problem when taking other sleep medicines; or if you are unable to swallow tablets. If you experience any of these or any other symptoms of an allergic reaction, call your doctor immediately.
This medicine may cause drowsiness and affect your ability to drive a car or operate machinery. If you are drowsy, do not drive or operate dangerous machinery. You should wait at least 12 hours after you have taken this medicine before driving a motor vehicle or operating machinery.
This medicine can also cause sleepwalking or other unusual behaviors (e.g. driving, eating, making a phone call, or having sex, etc.) while not being fully awake, which have been associated with serious injuries and death.
These effects are rare but they can happen. If you have any of these, or if you notice any other side effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist as soon as possible.
