Zolpidem: You can take zolpidem as needed. If 5 mg has not been effective, you can take 10 mg.

Sleep Hygiene: I agree with dr. Conovalciuc. See that you are also on diazepam. Both Ambien (zolpidem) & diazepam can be addicting. Have you & your physician tried any sleep medications that don't lead to tolerance? Good sleep hygiene is also very important. Here is some sleep hygiene information. 1. Keep a regular bedtime & wakening time (to include weekends). Get up the same time each day, regardless of what time >.
