I have been taking Luesta for a while and can't seem to get much sleep anymore and was wondering if it is safe to take 2 of them to get the needed and much wanted sleep?
Can I take 2 Lunesta 2mg tablets?

I have a lot of trouble sleeping and I take Lunesta 3 mg and it is still hard to sleep so sometimes I take two of those "6mg" and I'm okay., and to wake up feeling very rested. It's still totally up to you though, but I would talk to your doctor beforehand.
Mary; NO that is above the maximum dose recommended by the company. And you should not take more than what your doctor say. Give them a call on Monday they may have to try something else this is not uncommon. But this is one of the habit forming ones also and you don't want to run into any problems. Also if you have not heard this is one of the sleeping pills that people get up during the night walk around the house make themselves something to eat and eat. etc and not remember any of this in the morning so you have to be very careful. Please wait and talk to the doctor. hope you get some sleep soon.
