I have prescribed a 10mg zolpidem tab every night but I take doses until 60mg and don't fall asleep. I ever read that only 10mg make you to fall asleep in ten minutes. Why zolpidem doesn't work for me?
Same for me. In high doses one might even get aggressive or do stupid shit.
Zolpidem is known to be the more problematical twin part of the 2 Z-drugs for sleep.
Try zopiclone. Less people have problems with zopiclone and if you are also having trouble staying asleep it's also better due to longer half life (5/6 hours vs 1.5 hours) although for that purpose a typical benzo with medium to long half life would be choice no1
Because you are taking obscene amounts of methylphenidate
If you take 300mg of Methylphenidate, switching from Zolpidem to Zopiclone will not change anything. Many times it is difficult to give an answer to these threads because people ask questions about certain medicines while they are abusing others.
It is not that Zolpidem does not work, you are so stimulated that it simply has no effect on you. 60mg? Please, if 10mg does not work for you, do not continue taking Zolpidem if you do not want to have problems.

Maybe they do not work because you have tolerance, 200mg of Zolpidem is just crazy. Do you usually take benzodiazepines regularly? How many doses of stimulants? 10mg of Diazepan for me do the trick in any situation. I have a high tolerance to benzos because previously to take 150mg chlorazepate daily two years ago I was three years taking 6mg daily of alprazolam.

I've been using Benzos since years, mainly Clonazepam, but I tried almost all types ( I think I miss only Rhoypnol). I tell you that having a "background history" of benzos and a high tolerance, you may not feel anything. When I got Zolpidem for the first time I was excited to try it because you know it's called "rape drug" (not interested in raping just to clarify..), it's classified as hypnotic...so I thought "wow this will make me sleep forever!" Sadly, my benzo tolerance was too high and I didn't feel the kick, just nothing, and I laughed at the name "rape drug", but this is my experience, maybe someone with 0 tolerance to meds can fall asleep in 10minutes, who knows.
