Hiya. I went off zopiclone cold turkey. I had been on them 6 weeks and 7.5 mg was giving me only 3 hours sleep a night. I went into a rebound insomnia and my sleep was worse than before I went on to them. It took just over a week of totally disrupted sleep to come right. One night I didnt sleep at all. Now when I feel I am building up a tolerance to them (after about 3 weeks) I go off them for a few days Needless to say those few nights are very restless and I need a good remedy to get me through those days when I am off the pills. Cold turkey is not a good idea..better to reduce the dose slowly over a few nights. All the best :))
