>Best not to mess with anything sedative/hypnotic in the daytime.

Don't forget that all of the commonly used benzodiazepines are sedative-hypnotics. In most cases it's mainly a matter of marketing. For example........ Xanax, which is marketed as an anxiolytic, could have been marketed as a hypnotic eg. 500mcg at night. Restoril, which is marketed an a hypnotic, could have been marketed as an anxiolytic eg. 10mg three times a day. Ambien is somewhat different to the benzodiazepines in that its effects are predominantly hypnotic.
