i was wondering if anyone had any positive experiences, I took it for the first time today and i ended up taking 6 mg. I usually take 20 of ambien and a pharmacist i talked to said the 3mg prescribed was about equivalent to 10 ambien. i don't know what my psych would say about that, but i did have some good dreams early, i usually have bad ones late. But i am up at 4 am and don't know what i'll do. I still feel a little sleepy but i'm a little afraid to mix this with anything.

Look up the Board or Google Lunesta. There are quite a few Threads on lunesta. Most of them are good. Fondly, Phillipa

I have been somewhat following the boards, and it seems to me the overwhelming answer is that it does'nt help more than ambien. I admit I may have missed some positives, so probably my fault. I just wondered if anyone had any really good experiences, esp. after taking another sleep aid. Or what might work with it. thanks jamie

Hey Jamie! You know what...it's nowhere near as powerful a hynotic as Ambien is. But why would you want to be literally knocked out in order to fall sleep. Now, Lunesta doesn't even make me tired. But it is soothing...it allows me to drift off nicely into a good night's sleep. Sometimes I do take the Lunesta with some lorazepam if I'm REALLY not that tired and can't sleep. But hey, that's just my two cents...oh and make sure you're on 3mg, 2 ain't gonna cut it.
