Hi How much zopliclone can i take a night? A doctor told me you could take30mg of temazapam

Answered by Dr. Jorge Brenes-Salazar (7 days later)

Brief Answer: Indeed that is accurate Detailed Answer: Well, if you have chronically taken the medication as you have, indeed you can use a maximum of 30 mg of temazepam, however, the typical XXXXXXX recommended dose as I said is 15 mg when you look at the insert and the pharmacopeia data. On the other hand, the recommended dose of zopiclone is 5 to 7.5 mg before bedtime. Hope that is useful, wish you the best, Dr. Brenes-Salazar MD Mayo Clinic
