Ambien vs. Sonata vs. Ativan for insomnia?

Posted by 3 Beer Effect on January 30, 2002, at 2:28:38

I take Klonopin in the morning for daytime social phobia but don't take it at bedtime because Klonopin does not help me sleep very well & I don't want to build up tolerance to the Klonopin by taking around the clock.

I was wondering what is the best to help you get to sleep- Ambien vs. Sonata vs. Ativan? Once I fall asleep I usually stay asleep but I usually can't fall asleep until the sun comes up. I usually go to bed at 3 am & can fall asleep until about 6:30 am.

If Ambien & Sonata are not benzos then will they help prevent benzo tolerance to Klonopin by taking one of them instead of Klonopin at bedtime to help with sleep?
I've never taken Ativan- How does it compare w/ Klonopin?
Also, my muscles cramp up at night sometimes.
