Can I take 7.5mg and Methotrexate together?

Why this happens

Both drugs are processed by the liver. Methotrexate can sometimes cause liver stress or changes in enzyme activity, which may slow down the breakdown of zopiclone. Additionally, both drugs can have 'additive' effects on the brain, increasing sedation.

You can take these together if they have been prescribed by your doctor, but you should be very cautious. Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how the combination affects you. If you feel excessively sleepy the next day or experience extreme dizziness, contact your GP to discuss adjusting your dose.
