Question About Zopiclone
21 Answers
Today I've been prescribed Zopiclone 7.5 mg for stress related insomnia. The doctor was not impressed at my nearly full bottle of wine a night to try and wind down, so we both agreed sleeping tablets were a better alternative. I've been told to take one tablet 2-3 times a week not consecutively and only when really necessary and stop alcohol all together. . I've researched on the net and found out the dosage I've been given is the highest amount prescribed -I've never taken sleeping tablets before and am wondering if I should start with half a one . Has anyone any first hand advice on the effectiveness of Zopiclone and if its worth just taking half a one to start with? I can't afford to be zombie like the next day. Thanks.
