Re: Zopiclone
hi,
i have a friend who has been on them 4 years or more,started off on 7.5mg but now he needs twice that amount to get some sleep.his gp has changed and the new one is now trying to get him off them as they are addictive regardless of what people may say,they are very similar to benzos and we all know what gps think about them he has tried to cut down to 1 tab but had no sleep as he was used to 2,
my advice for what its worth is only use them half the week and try and use alternative methods the rest of the week.
luckily i dont suffer from the troubles of trying to get off to sleep,but from what my friend has said if he dosent take anything he just wont sleep simple as that.
so i guess it all boils down to quality of life-if u need something to get you to sleep then you need it dont beat yourself up over it.
we are all different and need different doses for same effects.
i wish u well
pedro....
p.s here is a chart for eqivalent benzos strength..zopiclone is at very bottom..... http://www.benzo.org.uk/manual/bzcha01.htm
