A member asked:

Is it normal to wake up 5 hours later after taking 10mg of zolpidem and clonidin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need to find the cau: Are you taking extended release Clonidine or short acting, and you are sleeping only 5 hours even with zolpiderm you need to consult your doctor and may need sleep studies and evaluation to find the underlying cause of your sleep disorder.
