Somehow I got on a call list for an online pharmacy for this drug. I’m considering trying it, mainly as a fill in for Ambien when I’m out. I usually run out about 4 days before my script is due & being a 50 yo female, my doctor doesn’t like me being on it anyway. But I’ve been taking it for 10 years so he’s ok with continuing but I know he’d probably refuse to up my dosage. I have a 10 mg 1x prescription but I split them to try to make them last longer.

Anything I should consider in using this in place of Ambien as needed? I also take Xanax nightly to sleep. I have also done this for years & I’m still alive. I’d rather run the risk of a drug interaction than not sleep. Even if it turns into dirt nap sleep. Sleep is my only peace & when I get it, I cope much better emotionally.
