> I have to disagree about Lunesta. It lasts about as long as Ambien but not as long as Ambien CR hence the controlled release. Now if there was a CR version of Lunesta then maybe....
>CR's half life is not much longer than the at once formulation (2.4-2.6 hrs):
Elimination:
Ambien CR administered as a single 12.5 mg dose in healthy male adult subjects, the mean zolpidem elimination half-life was 2.8 hours (range: 1.62 to 4.05 hr).
