Avatar n tn August 2013. I know zopiclone is a non benzo "z class" drug. Question: in the category for benzo's in the UDS IS ZOPICLONE INCLUDED IN THIS CLASS.?
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 n tn If the zopiclone is the cause of your leg cramps they will disappear if you stop taking the zopiclone.
Avatar f tn Long-term zopiclone users who have become physically dependent should not discontinue their medication abruptly as severe withdrawal symptoms may occur such as delirium.
Avatar f tn I have been prescribed zopiclone 7.5mg for 4 weeks by my doctor. It was supposed to be 1 at night but i find 1/2 a tablet helps me get 6-7 good hrs which i am happy with. my question is will i get withdrawal from taking 1/2 tablet nightly for 4 weeks if i stop or will i need to taper? Also is it realistic to expect my liver to repair itself given time....i have no symptoms of liver damage....i'm asking just in case?
Avatar n tn Hi, Thanks for writing in. Your symptoms are not related to the drug zopiclone.

Avatar n tn I have taken zopiclone 7.5mg, remeron 15mg since late 2004. One year ago, I began sensing heaviness and vibration in my internal organ. Earlier this year, I had body check, but the dr said my renal, liver functioned well, except that my cholestral level is a bit high. When I stand up and walk, the heaviness, vibration feeling vanish. But when I lie down, the heavy feel reappear. Is there a solution? Is the heavy feel related to psyche drugs?
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 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.

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 m tn I was taking 100mgs oxycodone a day for chronic back and knee pain, 900mgs gabapentin also for chronic pain, also 3(7.5mg) zopiclone at night to sleep and 1.5(7.5mg) during the day to sleep. I have stopped the oxycodone cold turkey with bad withdrawals, now at 13 days. My question is can I safely stop the zopiclone cold turkey or do I need to slowly taper off it?

Avatar f tn Zopiclone is used to treat sleeping problems (insomnia). HOW TO USE: Take this medication by mouth before bedtime as directed. This medication is usually taken for short periods of up to 4 weeks. Do not increase the dose or take this for longer than prescribed. Tolerance may develop with long-term or excessive use making it less effective.
335728 tn?1331414412 Might I suggest adding as treatments for sleeplessness such as Amitriptyline and Zopiclone as well as some of the other prescription sleep aides that some people may take. I want to keep track of how often I require these aids to help me sleep so that I can report it to my physician. Thank you!
