Ambien has a more of a half life than sonata. Ambien should help you sleep for about 4hrs or maybe more. Sonata, is faster onset, and may only get 2 hrs. I would say ambien is better. If you awake, take another 10mg to total 8hrs.
Im also on remeron and im sick of the weight gain. Sonata is good for maybe a quick power nap if you didnt get a good night sleep before. Ambien only allows me to sleep for 4 hrs, then i wake right up, sometimes anxious.
Another alternative, is maybe 1mg of klonopin with 10mg of ambien. Or if you increase the remeron to 45mg, less weight gain, and if you cannot fall asleep at 45mg, take an ambien with it.
Im going to try this soon.
