> I took my first 10mg Ambien last night. I had the best 4 hours of sleep in my life! Too bad I need 7 or 8 to be functional.

talk to your pdoc. s/he might suggest taking a 5mg dose if you wake up after that first 4 hours. it depends what your pdoc wants to do with you for the initial weeks. i have found that ambien is great for getting you off to sleep, but often it does end up just as you mentioned... great sleep for 4 hours, but then waking.

btw, i took 10mg last night and woke up with the sun. (ie: it worked) sometimes i just need it to get a good, solid night's sleep. then if i hit and miss "on my own" for a while i'm not feeling 'sleep deprived' so badly anymore.


> > My pdoc called in RX for Ambien 10mg for me today.

you can get ambien in the 10mg pill size or the 5mg pill size. i get the 5mg size so that i can take 10 or 15mg. fyi.
