I have been taking Ambien for about 15 years. 10 mg does the job. If I drink a lot of alcohol, then 10 mg is marginal, so I take 15 mg. In the earlier years, I broke them in half and only took 5 mg. The amount needed may increase slightly over the years. Lunestra(sp?) is much more expensive even though Ambien is expensive. I have to pay it all. Anyway, Ambien still works well over all these years, despite the "short term" claims. One thing on Ambien I learned is that your sleep time starts 20 minutes after you take it. It will keep you asleep for 8 hours and then wake you up, not groggy! If you take it and stay up for 4 hours, then you will only get 4 hours of sleep! Good luck, sir! Dave
