What are the long term side effects of taking Zopiclone(sleeping tabelt)?
I’ve had trouble sleeping for years on end and zopiclone 7.5 is the best sleep medication I’ve ever tried. You need to use it as little as possible, else you’ll get tolerance. Zopiclone isn’t a benzodiazepine but it’s supposed to bind to the same receptor sites in the brain. If you kept taking zopiclone nightly for months on end you might get addicted to it. I was on it for several weeks every night and when I stopped taking it I kept seeing ghosts etc. Just be careful with that stuff. It can also cause memory loss eg if someone phones after I’ve taken it I cannot remember next day what I said. Just be careful with that stuff. Like I said it’s an excellent sleeping pill but it shouldn’t be used to excess. You could try using Nytol some nights (not the herbal one, the proper one in the blue pack). It’s not as good but unlike zopiclone, Nytol is non-addictive.
