Temazepam shortage? Zopiclone
I went to get a new temazepam script today and my doctor tells me there is a temazepam shortage
and gave me zopiclone. I secretly know more about sleeping pills than he thinks I do and he told me they were basically the same but I know they are non-benzo. I have taken zolpidem in the past so guess its the same but not sure on dosage? I have 3.75mg tablets and used to take half a temazepam but not sure half of this will be enough? Plus the tablets aren't scored.
Anyone got experience taking zopiclone?

0 ·Zopiclone is not the same as Temazepam. Temazepam is much stronger and more addictive. Zolpedem is just a cheap version of Zopiclone.
With me i found Temazepam the best but it's not a long-term drug.
The zopiclone you're on could go up as you are not on the highest dose. Obviously don't just take my word for it- speak to the doctor.

0 ·I dont really like either for more than a day or two. If i need help getting to sleep and dont have weed, then ill go for a valium over a temazepam or zopiclone any day.
