Lunesta 2 Mg Split Dose

Took 2mg Lunesta for first time last night. It was too strong and I woke up to groggy. Can I cut this pill in half for a lower dose?

The FDA does warn about that happening to some people that take Lunesta.

As to cutting, or breaking them, no, the manufacturer warns that you should not do so. If you feel you need a lower dose, you should consult your doctor.

Other Lunesta side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth.
