Yes. I have had to work with my GP who's prescribed Zolpidem ER, which is not as good as the name brand, Ambien. Insurance won't cover the cost. I've added an over the counter melatonin chewable tablet to the Zolpidem and that has worked great. Fast REM sleep, but I get only a maximum 6 hours and then I wake up, eat breakfast and go back to sleep for a couple hours. I really want off of the prescription med.

Yes, I know what you mean... It's so frustrating not to get a good sleep. Thanks so much.

I take Zopiclone for sleep--- it that different than what you take... the brand name is Imovane.
Do you recommend my taking a melatonin chewable along with my Imovane as you say it helps a bit more.I know what you mean about prescription meds. but what else can we do when issues arise..??? thanks.
