Zopiclone and Alcohol

Posted , 2 users are following.

I've been taking zopiclone this week, I've been  looking up mixing zopiclone and alcohol and the effects aren't good. 

I have taken one tonight (Wednesday night) and I have a festival on Saturday where I want to drink

Will I be okay to drink on Saturday if I don't take anymore zopiclone after tonight? 

Thanks

    Everything I have experienced tells me, no don't drink if you are trying to withdraw. It may give you temporary symptom relief, but it messes up your GABA receptor in your brain, as I understand it. Even if you aren't withdrawing, the advice is not to drink when taking a Benzo.
