Insomnia and Zopiclone

[David_H]

Hi everyone. I've been taking Zopiclone for the last couple of weeks (small doses of either 1/2 or even 1/4 of 3.75mg tablet).

My GP has advised my to take 1/2 a 3.75mg tablet for two weeks taking it before going to bed (I've tried the method of going to bed and then taking a tablet if unable to get to sleep but didn't find this worked very well). Just started this but was wondering if it would be best to reduce the 1/2 tablet during the second week by a small amount rather than just stopping without any reduction?

Or maybe this dosage is too low to worry too much about? I asked the GP if I could just try a 1/4 tablet after the prescribed time but he said you can become dependent whatever the dose.

Appreciate any views on this from Zopiclone users

Thanks
