Working / Worked
Side effects because it contains lactose.
Working / Worked
Usually works pretty well, but not always. Started with Ambien and moved to the generic. I'm semi-addicted now, so I have a lot of trouble sleeping without it.
I started having trouble sleeping due to panic attacks everytime I went to sleep so my mom filled her perscription for me.

Wonderful! I take 20mg at night. Only problems are the eating, driving, saying things, etc...that you don't remember the next day.

I find this sleep aid to be very addicting. Also if you take it and do not immediately get in bed you start acting pretty drunk like. Lowers all inhibitions. Makes sight seem to drag as you turn your head. Happy over all feeling on it.
Working / Worked
I sleep most of the time now. But not always.
Working / Worked
it used to work for months but because i have been on it for a year now it is not working any more at the strength i am taking.
Working / Worked
Sometimes takes a couple hours to kick in but usually end up getting a few hours of sleep.
Working / Worked
Ambien is alright, but I still get a slight hangover feeling the next day. I don't currently have a prescription for it / I'm not currently taking it.
Working / Worked
Usually works, some nights it only will help a short while.
