A member asked:
Does zopiclone cause cognitive decline or any brain damage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Zopiclone is not approved in the USA. It is considered as, or more addictive, than benzodiazepines, yet is a mediocre sleeping pill. Thus, can cause temporary cognitive clouding, "brain fog", lower focus and concentration ability, dizziness and imbalance. Not clear to me if sleep walking can occur. Doubt would cause "brain damage" or dementia when discontinued, but would expect withdrawal sxs.
