Ambien not working for anyone else?

Hello,
Ambien and Lunesta are from the same drug class called “Z drugs”. But lunesta have a longer half life which can help you stay asleep. Whereas, Ambien have a shorter half life which may cause you to wake up during the night time. Moreover, there is an Ambien CR that may help you stay asleep longer. But, Each medication affects everyone differently, so you should discuss with your doctor what’s best for you.

I take Ambien. My dose is 10 mgs. I take (2) tablets at bedtime. One tablet was not effective as I had been on Clonazepam for 20 years for sleep, and discontinued it due to health problems created by it. I have built up quite a tolerance for many meds. However, Ambien is the only one that was effective. It works for two nights, and then I have to wait 2 nights because it doesn't work if I don't follow this schedule. I have tried prescription meds, and all of the natural solutions. No luck there. In my experience, even though I have to do the two days on, two days off schedule, I would recommend Ambien. Also, no hangover effect the next day.
