I have taken it for years for sleep and occasionally add a small amount of melatonin with it for restless leg syndrome. The doc told me the smaller the dose the more side effects and the higher the dose the less side effects but I stay at 15mg. Everything has side effects, ugh

That's a new one on me! Less is worse than more? I took Ambien for 18 years. Just switched to Lunesta and it works well.

I’m curious as to your comment about the smaller the dose, the more side effects

Hi, just started taking this med for sleep. 15mg as well. And my doctor told me the same thing about the dosing. Now, I have only taken twice, I am trying to get more natural sleep, but being an insomniac since I was in my teens(don't tell anyone, but I am 59 yrs old) I struggle. Anyway, you experience restless leg? How long after you started taking it did your restless leg start ? I don't want that problem too. Thanks
