This side effect has been reported in ambien patiens so now all sleep aids have to mention it as a possibility. In fact lunesta did a study in which 788 patients took lunesta 3mg nightly for 6 months and then 471 of those pats continued for another 6 months, so there's a year of nightly use for insomnia pats and NO REPORTED SUCH A SIDE EFFECT. Ambien CR on the other hand did a 3 week double blind trial and a 6 month prn or use "as needed" study to get their sleep maintenance indication and it that drug that has had pats report such things as sleep driving sleep eating, etc.... <BR/>From a source in the know.<BR/>ps. the authors of the lunesta studies are roth and krystal, you can look them up. good luck and sleep well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
