Can something happen to me if I suddenly stop Imovane?

Hello. I am addicted to the drug imowane, I have been taking for over a year, currently 4 tablets a day I tried to stop several times but there were terrible headaches, vomiting, convulsions. My psychiatrist did not write me a new prescription, I have a few pills left, I do not know if when I run out of symptoms that will appear after a few days and it is enough to get tired or can something happen to me?

In cases where there has been the development of physical dependence on a drug such as Imovane, it is recommended to gradually reduce the dose - ideally, this process should be supervised by a doctor with experience in addiction therapy. It can also be your psychiatrist, but it is difficult for me to answer what the visit was and how your current state of health was assessed, since the doctor simply decided not to issue another prescription. Abrupt discontinuation of treatment will most likely be accompanied by withdrawal syndrome symptoms that you have already dealt with. According to the documentation of the drug, headaches and muscle pains, increased anxiety and mental tension, anxiety, confusion and irritability may occur. In severe cases, there are symptoms such as: derealization, depersonalization, increased hearing acuity, numbness and tingling of the limbs, hypersensitivity to light, noise and touch, hallucinations and seizures. Withdrawal symptoms may develop within a few days after discontinuation of zopiclone (the active ingredient in Imovane).
