Insomnia
"This medicine works very well for me. I take 7.5mg. of this. I am prescribed 1 or 2 at bedtime.  Before, I was taking 5mg. of regular Ambien. I would fall asleep rather quickly, but I always wake up around 2 or 3 am for the bathroom. Then, I could never go back to sleep. When I went back to my doctor, she changed it to the extended release. Now when I get up during the night, I&#039;m able to get back to sleep. I always allow myself enough time to sleep off the medication, even if it means taking it and going to bed early. I allow myself 10 hours. I feel rested when I get up and have coffee. The only side effect I&#039;ve experienced is I sometimes wake myself up talking.** I would not take this med. with nerve pills or drink alcohol."
