Hello,
welcome to HCM and thanks for the query.
Zaleplon is a sedative hypnotic which doesn't belong to the benzodiazepine group.
There is no report of any interaction with the other medicines you are on.
There is insufficient data as to any dependence on the drug.
I shall be happy to answer if you have further questions.
