Zopiclone: This medication is primarily used in adults for sleep and is not available in the United states. The medication is similar to the family of medicines like Valium. It causes sedation and a longer episode of sleep. It does have other interactions with medications and in some patients depression of their drive to breathe. I would recommend seeing an emergency room doctor to clear her.

ER: Take her to the emergency room. Unfortunately, this medication can cause significant breathing depression to the point where she could stop breathing. At the ER, they will most likely feed her a charcoal mixture through a tube and have her throw up the pill so that it will not absorb into her system. If it does absorb they may be able to reverse the effect with IV fluids and appropriate meds
