Lunesta Withdrawal

A person is at an increased risk of withdrawal if Lunesta is taken for a long time or in high doses and then stopped suddenly. Lunesta withdrawal symptoms can range from mild to intense and vary in duration. Increased feelings of anxiety are a common withdrawal side effect, and some may also experience feelings of depression for a time after discontinuing its use. Some people may have unusual, bad, or vivid dreams while sleeping, or they may suffer from rebound insomnia. With rebound insomnia, your inability to sleep properly will once again become a problem, as you’ve become dependent on Lunesta and its effect on your brain to sleep. Often, your returned insomnia is more severe than it was prior to taking Lunesta. Withdrawal symptoms may also include stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting, and increased sweating. Because of your inability to get enough restful sleep, you may experience heightened fatigue, headaches, and even slight memory problems until you are no longer suffering from withdrawal.

While tapering off of one’s dosage can help reduce the risk of withdrawal from Lunesta, it’s important that you address your abuse of and subsequent dependence on the medication.
