Zopiclone Withdrwal question. Need help ASAP!

[V82]

How long will it take it take to go into withdrawal from zopiclone? I took my last pill. I took it 2 to 3 times a week. Plus Clonazepam 1 -2 times a week. I am all out of pills. Please help me. I am freaking out.

 

[V82]

Please help me. What should I do?

You only take it 2 to 3 times a week? How much do you take each time? Its a short acting non-benzo that is cleared from the body quickly and other than rebound insomnia, withdrawal is uncommon.

 

[V82]

Oh thank god.. if its a non-benzo that mean I won't become dependant if I take clonazepam too.

Yes, unless you take massive doses, frequently you should be in the clear.

I never take over 7.5 mg but my girlfriend is becoming a pharmacist and she has been freaking out every day about me use of these drugs. And it has made crazy. I take 7.5 mg 2 to 3 times a week. Clonazepam 0.75 mg - 1 mg 1 -2 times a week, but not for 5 days, so I am in the clear for clonazepam withdrawal withdrawal .

 

[Kittycat5]

You should be fine. Zopiclone is basically out of the body by the next day and your clonazepam doses are small and infrequent.

I wish the gf good luck, as I too am a Rph. We tend to err on the side of caution with our patients so I understand her trepidation but you should have no problems. Obviously it is still prudent to monitor yourself for any untoward effects, but I wouldnt anticipate anything.

Can I check back here to see if I go through withdrawal. I also drank a bottle of wine. I drink often. I might take another 7.5 mg clonazepam to help me sleep.

 

[Kittycat5]

Sure. PM me if you want. Alcohol, however can intensify the effects of both drugs so be careful. Really you shouldnt drink at all with these drugs.
