Zolpidem is used to treat insomnia (difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep). Zolpidem belongs to a class of medications called sedative-hypnotics. It works by slowing activity in the brain to allow sleep. Zolpidem comes as a tablet (Ambien) and an extended-release (long-acting) tablet (Ambien CR) to take by mouth. Zolpidem also comes as a sublingual tablet (Edluar, Intermezzo) to place under the tongue and an oral spray (Zolpimist) which is sprayed into the mouth over the tongue.

Drones live 6 to 8 weeks, or less if evicted on approach of winter, or if, when sexually mature at 16 days they mate, they will die. A queen bee can live for two to five years.
Question: How long does a bee live? Answer: An average hive may contain 60 000 bees, including one fertile queen, thousands of sterile female workers and hundreds of male drones. The longevity (life span) of a bee depends on the caste of the bee, i.e. whether it is a worker, a queen, or a drone. All bees start life as an egg laid in a cell in the honeycomb. The eggs hatch three days after they are laid. The legless white grub (called a larva) is fed by worker bees for five to seven days.
