If the non-benzo drug works in the first place, what's the point of switching on and off? Why not just use that each night?> I wonder if any controlled studies have been done into this? No drug company would ever do it, because they want you to take their pill every night, not rotate theirs with somebody elses.

You can check; not all studies are funded by drug companies, although it has gotten ludicrous these days. GHB works every night indefinitely, but good luck getting that.
