Detailed Answer:
Hello, and thanks for your question.
I would be very hesitant to recommend zopiclone to someone with sleep apnea. A much better approach would be to use a CPAP mask to improve sleep this way, as this is safer and has been proven to be highly effective.
If someone is taking these medications and has an irregular heartbeat, they must be sure to undergo regular EKG testing to ensure there are no major changes over time. Otherwise, these medications are safe to take.
