How do I stop taking Zolfresh 10mg, which I've been taking as an OD at bedtime for the past three months?

Asked by Male, 40 · 9 hours ago

Zolfresh 10 mg (zolpidem) should not be stopped suddenly after 3 months, as it can cause rebound insomnia or withdrawal symptoms. Reduce the dose gradually (for example, step down to 5 mg, then alternate days) under a doctor?s guidance.
