i have this medication and i black out wherever i am within the hour. But you can become adicted to it and then you become immune to its effects. Sleeping tablets are not natural sleep they just knock you out. I had to get myself off it or when I did come off it i would never get any sleep in the long run

I agree that it wipes me out within the hour - if i'm going to take it i just wish it would keep me asleep. Hate the thought of becoming addicted to these types of drugs - scares the hell out of me but I just get so stressed knowing i wont sleep unless I take something. What do you do for the best - lose your mind from not sleeping or becoming addicted?

I have been on and off zopiclone 7.5mg. I took only half the pill. It has been great to me. I am slowly weaning myself off the pill when I am not working really early in the morning. I hope it works for you.

Zopliclone is great at putting you to sleep. I was addicted after 6 weeks and then they only gave me 3 hours sleep.Either I had to incrase the dose which left me feeling very medicated next day or give them up. I decided the latter. To anyone thinking about giving up sleeping pills it is best to wean yourself off them.Your sleep pattern will be disrupted for a time maybe 1-2 weeks but it will definitely come right. It is just a period when the body needs to adjust itself again without pills and the inconvenience is most definitely worth it to get a natural sleep.

I've been taking Zopiclone for years and never had to increase the dosage until recently, after a panic attack. They do say that you develop a tolerance to it, but that wasn't my experience. It definitely works, even if I am anxious it will relax me and let me sleep.

I tried it and it made me speedy all night not for me at all. Works great for some.

I'm not a huge fan of it, but I like having it in my arsenal. I switch between taking it, small doses of gravol, and nothing. I find sometimes I'd rather not sleep than deal with drug hangovers, but there are of course periods where I do sleep on my own. Switching drugs helps to keep me from forming habits with one, and keeps them from losing their effectiveness over periods of extended use.

What I think Zopiclone is good for is restoring a natural rhythm, by taking it relatively early for a few nights in a row. Routine is very helpful to me, personally. I don't find Zopiclone makes me feel rested, however, and I often wake up suddenly, very early in the morning.

i have this medication and it doesnt work for me although it makes me feel sleepy i dont get to sleep! leaves a terrible metallic taste in my mouth for days too!

maybe all of you or some of you have experienced: amnesia ,hallucinations,anxiety i's just some of the side effects . ya I agree that this durg can be addictive.I studied the side effects of Doc. drugs. don't take drugs due to that the fact your body may become to reliant to them.

Didn't work for me just left me with a bad i mean very bad taste in my mouth

workd really well apart from leaving an awful taste of metal in your mouth the more frequently you take them. Sometimes they made me feel hungover and tired and lethargic the next day. Also i think most sleeping tablets are addictive.
