[QUOTE="John O'Connor, post: 184757, member: 13064"] Without knowing more about your sleep issues, i.e. reason for taking insomnitol, I'd be cautious with the above advice on switching to Ambien. It's highly addictive, and has been linked to dementia with long-term use. If you need a sleep aid, try regular melatonin. I worked as a medical scribe for a geriatrician in nursing homes and the doctor I worked with switched all of her new paitients off of ambien and onto melatonin. She started all of them on 6mg dose and would bump it up to 9mg is needed. Many of the patients were only there for short rehab stays following surgery, and so many of them said they tried melatonin previously and it didn't work for them. But typical dose is 3mg, and that often won't work. I can't tell you the number of compliments this doctor received from patients after 1 week on the higher dose melatonin. They claimed they had the best nights sleep they've had in years. If 5 or 6mg works for you great, if not try bumping up to 9mg. Preferably only take it when you can't sleep, as even melatonin can be habit forming, but at least it's a hormone we all naturally make. [/QUOTE]
