[QUOTE=JoanB;575399]I searched the forum for this topic and found passing mention of it but no threads. I’m taking Ambien CR 12.5 mg pretty much every night.

*** I've been taking regular Ambien for almost 18 months. I, too, worry about dependence. I generally take it 5 out of 7 nights a week. Only rarely have I had to take more than the one pill (10 mg if I recall). Always works. How often are others taking it?
