You're very lucky to have been prescribed pregabalin, an opioid, and sleeping pills. You have a generous doctor. Pregabalin is great for insomnia, by itself - I'd ask for an increased dose now personally, seeing as the zopiclone has been stopped. 300mg of preg is a standard dose.Personally I'm cursed with insomnia too my whole life and take 600mg of preg - I find it far better than actual sleeping pills.

This feels like a reply to a specific post which didn't get connected?
Ah that's odd - not sure why it didn't get connected properly but I was replying to someone who said they gets prescribed codeine 60mg, and 200mg of pregabalin, and stopped getting prescribed zopiclone, also gets prescribed a blood thinner I think.. so not yo sure where to find it, but I'm prescribed 120mg of dihydrocodeine - but pregabs and opioids are a good mix, better off without the zopiclone. Hope this advice finds it's way to the intended, or generally helps anyone.
