Generics are…: supposed to have same active ingredient(s) as brand name drugs, but fillers & delivery system may differ. Were you taking Ambien (zolpidem) or Ambien (zolpidem) CR, the latter is long-acting version. Several generic versions have been approved. Alternatives tend to be more habit-forming (Valium family). Other options: carb snack or warm bath B4 bedtime; supplements like melatonin or 5-HTP; take anxiety med at bedtime.
