Avatar f tn If zopiclone has been taken for more than a few weeks then the medication should be gradually reduced or preferably to cross over to an equivalent dose of diazepam (Valium), which has a much longer half-life which makes withdrawal easier and then gradually taper their dosage over a period of several months in order to avoid extremely severe and unpleasant withdrawal symptoms (e.g.
Avatar n tn Hi I have been taking zopiclone for 6 years to relieve sleep problems at first and then started to take them in the day to calm me..I am now up to about 10 7.% mg a day off the internet...I want this to stop now, I am also alcoholic but no longer drink, Im scared if I stop the zopiclone too quickly I will have seizures as I did with alcohol withdrawl....
Avatar f tn As far as I'm aware Prozac is the most stimulating of the SSRIs. It also has the longest half life and is supposed to be the easiest to quit taking. If your problem is just anxiety I would try something else first. I find Zoloft to be a bit stimulating for me. Lexapro was very neutral and Paxil was very sedating. But we are each different so you may like Prozac.
1634491 tn?1302410573 hi and welcome, i am not that familiar with zopiclone, but i do believe it can be addictive, and that it shouldnt be used with methadone, at least not without expert medical advice, someone with more experience will most likely be able to advise you, are you on a methadone program?
Avatar f tn With the stresses of school, have increases my use of zopiclone. Was on 3.75mg, then 7.5mg and up and down when possible to cut back or needed because of stress. Finished my RX Dec 26 and have been without it for about 7 days now. No tapering. Symptoms have included rebound insomnia, intense anxiety that runs through my body and stresses me out when night time approaches. Nausea. No appetite. Depressed. Anxious.
Avatar m tn t like what it has robbed from me,and turned me into, I just was feed up and want (my) a life back. The zopiclone has probably been 3 years everyday so I hope that still makes it okay to just stop?
Avatar m tn I've been taking zopiclone to help me sleep which I think it works but only getting about 3-4 hours sleep from them... I came of zopiclone tablets yesterday and found it really hard to get any sort of sleep but I don't want to live my life through taking them...
Avatar n tn Basically I mix trazodone and zopiclone because I was instructed to by the GP. When I needed to take more Zopiclone I first made sure there were no reported contraindications between it and trazodone anyway, and held back to two thirds the dosse of trazodone to part compensate for the increase in the other. I feel if anything, reporting that should hopefully clarify to anybody reading this that a mix of those two drugs is not of medical concern, as it was suggested by my GP.
Avatar f tn The half-life of a drug is how long it takes for half of it to be eliminated from the bloodstream. Hope that helps.
6298176 tn?1380134459 It has a very long half life, though I can't give you specifics. The dose and how long you were on it does factor in. Your doctor should be able to help you with your questions on this.
Avatar m tn From March, 2010, I started to take zopiclone at the same time, the maxinum I had taken was 16pills/day and now I was taken 8-10pills/day. I found that I got weight loss, weakness, non stable mental all the days. I want to quit all of them but it seems very difficult because everyday I had to work for money. Could anyone tell me some good ideas to quit them? It would be very appriciate. thank you.
Avatar m tn s so hard. Depression steals our life from us. Has this been going on for more than two weeks? Have you sought any help for this? For most, depression is treatable. It takes time, patience and practice. You are lethargic and tired during the day and not sleeping at night? What other symptoms do you have?
Avatar f tn I have depression and post traumatic Stress disorder and am currently on Mirtrazipine, Venoflaxine, Quitiepine and Zopiclone I have been treated for this since my mid twenties, last year I had three small focal seizures which no pathology found. I am now about to start on Sodium Valproate increasing dosage initially to 250mg in morning and 500mg at night this is being prescribed primarily as a mood stabiliser but is thought to help stop the seizures.
Avatar f tn have u taken this med in the evening at all?
Avatar f tn You need to be patient as hard as that it. Sub has such a long half life- I believe it is 21 days before it is completely out of your system. Just surrender and try not to watch the clock. I came off of 150 mg of oxy/nalexone cold turkey. I definitely did not feel remotely human at a week. But on day 12 I had a board meeting for the non-profit I volunteered at. I was scared but totally fine. It felt good to go out and connect with people.
Avatar m tn 5 mg and it worked for about a year but i started taking more and more untill my doctor agreed that taking 2x zopiclone at night would give me a better quality of life seen as though the pain kept me awake. 2 turned to 3 a night followed closely by 4 untill my 56 tablets a month were lasting 2 weeks max...
Avatar m tn Thank you for your help of replying to my worries... I was also on doxycycline but no other medication... I came off my zopiclone last night and found it really hard to sleep but don't want to live my life taking zopiclone to help me sleep for a few hours especially when I have a baby on the way...
Avatar f tn I overdosed on zopiclone and the ENTIRE last week has been a blur. I didnt do it to commit suicide, i took about 5-7 pills. But the worst part is i dont remember how i got to the hospital, what happened there, who spoke to me, no doctors no anything. Eventually i was transferred to an inpatient unit for mental health and discharged, but I get depressed everytime i think about not remembering anything that happened for 2-3 days after incident.

Avatar f tn ?? Does anyone know the Half life of SUBOXONE - Beprenorphine.? I HEARD it was 70 hours, but that's what I heard....unsure if that is even accurate?
