lunesta

Avatar n tn It can be a side effect of Ritalin (methylphenidate), Adderall (dextro/levo-amphetamine) and Lunesta (eszopiclone) and other prescription drugs or of cocaine or amphetamines. (Accordingly, it goes by the slang term "coke bugs".) Formication can also be a withdrawal symptom of weaning oneself off cocaine or amphetamine. It can also accompany alcohol withdrawal in alcoholics, along with delirium tremens.
1689024 tn?1308326866 If you have drug coverage you should ask your doctor about a product called Lunesta (Eszopiclone) which is available in the U.S. if you live elsewhere then Google "eszopiclone" to see if it goes under another name where you live. This sleep aid is designed for those that cannot stay asleep as opposed to a different sleep called Ambien (Zolpidem) in the U.S. which is used for those that cannot fall asleep without great difficulty but are able to stay asleep once started.
1246883 tn?1285547973 how much seroquel are you taking? try to lower the dose, seroquel is used as sleeping aid at around 25 to 100mg approximately. You can try some antidepressant to control your appetite. I definitely do not recommend ambien or lunesta, for long term treatment of insomnia. They have a very short life in your body and it which builds up tolerance quickly. The so called "z" drugs ambien and lunesta (zolpidem, zopiclone, zaleplon and eszopiclone) are for short term insomnia only.

Avatar m tn Examples of this would be Ambien (Zolpidem) or Lunesta (Eszopiclone). Over the counter remedies typically do not work as they are too weak to reset your clock. I would ask your doctor for an Rx of one of these sleep aids to get you through till therapy. The longer your sleep is disrupted the worse your anxiety can potentially become. Best of luck.
Avatar m tn From what Ive been told, Tylenol (Acetaminophen) is one of the worst things you can take when it comes to your liver. Im pretty sure the Rx drugs Ambien and Lunesta are both easier on the liver. The only downside of course being they are quite habit-forming.
Avatar f tn Hey all, so I got tired of not sleeping more than 4hrs a night after being off of Tramadol 42days and my Dr gave me Lunesta. I asked if it was addicting and he said yes but you won't buid up a tolerance to it... I would like to hear this though from someone that has taken this medication and has had to come off it... How hard was it? What where the wds like???ect.ect any info on this would be appreciated...Thank You. Jeffi.
611606 tn?1315517767 Yes I use a sleeping aid, but I dont use a morphine pump, I just use fentynal patches and oxycodone for pain, the sleeping medication my doctor gave me is Remeron, it works very well, its not an addictive sleeping aid and the bonus side effect is appetite so when your too nauseated or just dont want to eat, it aleviates that. The only problem is that Remeron makes me hungry at night, dont know why but thats the time i usually start getting an appetite.
202665 tn?1248806733 I think being able to track the dosage of medication would be incredibly useful for things like monitoring adjustments and weaning off meds. I am currently tapering off mine and I would love to see how/if my mood changes as I decrease the dosage.
Avatar n tn Doctors are prescribing this medication and the lunesta for months and years. If you do the research you will find out the companies state it should NEVER be used more than 10-days to 2 weeks at most. If you are having insomnia now wait till you have given up these meds for a few day and weeks. You feel horrible. I will never take another prescription sleep drug.
Avatar n tn Also, I have taken up to 4 sleeping pills, with no results? It seems that any type of medication that I take in pill form does not work, but anything injected through an IV works like a charm. Can anyone tell me why????
266660 tn?1189755834 I used to take my kpin before bed with some medication that makes you tired together. How does the lunesta work btw?
