I have tried many different "solutions to get a full night's sleep! I finally decided to go back to Zolpidem. I worked pretty well for about 2 months... I would wake up about 5:00 or 6:00.
Now I wake up at 3:00, every single night, when I go to bed at 11:00. What strength do you take?
I tried staying up until Midnight, but that did not help. It's like I have an internal alarm clock!
Any ideas?

Do you take the whole 10mg at bedtime or split it in half and take half when you wake up in the middle of the night? That's my problem with it....my doctor will only give me 5mg pills so I take 1 at bedtime and 1 more when I wake up after 4 hours....
