As your doctor if Lunesta is right for you.
There's a land of restful sleep. We can help you go there on the wings of Lunesta."
Sure, sign me up! I'd love to have those side effects! And uh, I might be pointing out the obvious here but if it is doing what it's supposed to, make you sleep, isn't there a possibility that you wouldn't KNOW your tongue and throat is swelling? I guess that is why it could be fatal. I might Ambishop, Ambiblog or Ambibook without remembering but at least I don't have to sign away my life (literally) or have my license taken away for a sleeping pill.
2 Important Inputs:
They're both classified as Z-drugs. They both have the same side effects, tolerance frets & withdrawals effects. I didn't know that initially or I never would've tried them both. I haven't taken them since 2010. The withdrawal symptoms were the worst experience of my life. They're also as hard to get off (withdrawal symptom wise) as the benzos which are harder to get off than heroin (it's a fact if you research it, another ting I had no clue about). I took Valium for 8 years for back spasms & the taper off was hell. Valium is supposed to be easiest to get off because of the longer half life, Xanax is the hardest because it has the shortest half life. Anyway, your post reminded me of my horrible experience with prescriptions meds. I never knew something you never abused, could have such disastrous consequences. :(
*tolerance effects not frets. Stupid autocorrect on this iPad. :)
