Does temazepam cause memory loss

Answer 1

I have been using Melatonin 3mg for the past 12months almost every night, as I had suffered from palpitations and could not get to sleep Melatonin was the only natural remedy that worked.

For the past 2 months I have noticed a decline in my short term memory and ability to grasp simple everyday words in a hurry, I worried that this may be connected to my long term use of Melatonin and have for the past week discontinued it's use, no harm to give it a break for a while.

I want to see if after further non usage whether my memory etc improves.

Answer 2

Yes. Dementia type symptoms ie memory probs from long term addiction. I know as this is happening to me, terrifying. Please print this as a warning. I do not know if my memory problems will escalate further if I do not stop taking Temazepam. 10 yr. addiction to 10-20 mg nightly. I do not know if my memory will return to normal when I quit. I am down to a very low dosage so there is hope I will stop entirely. Anon, 44 yr old male.
