Lunesta Withdrawal

Information on Lunesta

Treating Lunesta Withdrawal Symptoms

In most cases, if Lunesta withdrawal symptoms do occur, they are usually minor and improve with time, without the need for any treatment.

For more severe cases, a healthcare provider may decide to put you back on Lunesta temporarily, then slowly wean you off the medication.

Lunesta Withdrawal: Final Thoughts

Make sure to notify your healthcare provider if you develop any withdrawal symptoms when stopping Lunesta. Also, let your healthcare provider know if you develop something that "just does not seem right." While it may not be a Lunesta withdrawal symptom, your healthcare provider will be able to diagnose and recommend treatment for the problem.
