i've just began to consume eszopiclone tablets 2mg.how long should i continue using pills?what are the side effects?what would you suggest me to do in order to sleep at night on my own?
thanks for your time..
Answer Hi Chaitanya,
I do hope that the drug is prescribed for you. In any case it will take about 1 or 2 weeks before you see .a complete reversal of your sleep pattern and you may need to take it for around 2 months.
The main side effect is sedation.
