Eszopiclone belongs to a class of drugs called sedative-hypnotics. It acts on your brain to produce a calming effect. Use of this medication is usually limited to short treatment periods of 1 to 2 weeks or less.

| Add Lunesta review Very dangerous drug. It was very effective at first. I took it for ~5-6 months. I developed tolerance withdrawal (ear ringing terrible sinus headaches) after ~5 months. Had severe withdrawal symptoms upon discontinuing. Should not be prescribed for extended use. Due to the fact that I have no stomach, I have absorption issues will all drugs. Ambien made me hallucinate horribly, seeing little people living under my bed. Scary. Lunesta 3 mgs usually helps me to fall asleep and I get 4-5 hours of decent sleep with this. I find the aftertaste not all that great, but can u really put a price on a good nights sleep? have been taking for 2 months good results wake often (due to dog needing out) but have no trouble returning to sleep bad taste small inconvenience price is big issue could be prohibitive | Add Restoril review I wish my doctor would have prescribed this one to me a long time ago. I have tried all of the ones advertized on TV but none of them have worked. Thank goodness I kept pushing for something to help! After using Ambien (did nothing) and Seroquel (worked wonders but caused Low QT rhythyms in my heart???), I found Restorial 30 mg. works quite well. Although I must agree with other reviewers in that it doesn't put me out immediately, but when I am ready to go to sleep, I am ABLE to go to sleep. And that, my friends, is the greatest gift of all. YOu know how it is, up alllll night, finally watching the World News Now tv broadcast, which they advertise to insomniacs. Good Lord!!!! I need more sleep than that..... I have been taking restoril 30mgs, for months now. It helps alot,but not all the time.I usually sleep for about 4 hrs when i really try to go to sleep. | |||
