> Well, my doctor is concerned about some kind of dependence, also says an on/off schedule works better.
I've tried taking it on and off, much as you describe. It actually didn't work very well. Taking it every day works better for me.

Me too. For whatever reason, I don't think people *get* addicted to Ambien, except maybe if they're abusing it very extensively.
Sweet dreams....
