> Eric you are so right I have a source who has filled me on on these meds. Correspond with him now. I would use the lunesta instead of valium if I had the $85 a month as medicaire will not cover it. I had a couple coupons in the beginning it helped. Phillipa

If you're used to benzodiazepines, pseudobenzodiazepine agents like Lunesta, Ambien, Sonata, etc probably aren't as effective. But then again, everyone is different.

Generally Ambien -> Lunesta -> Sonata in decreasing order of potency, unless you are rx'd Ambien at 20mg or Lunesta at 4mg, e.g.

If you've never taken Seroquel, Seroquel at even 12.5mg would probably induce sleep and the D2 binding would be nearly insignificant. Still one can understand hesitation, I know. No single agent is completely benign.
