Zolpidem before the big test ?

[romanra]

Base on previous testing experience, I know I will get insomnia the night before the big test, should I try taking maybe 5-10mg of Zolpidem the night before or will it decrease focus the next morning? has anyone try it?

I tried zzquil last night. Worked well. Has a slower onset than regualr NyQuil. I going to take zzquil the night before .

If benadryl doesn't instantly knock you out, try that.

Eh if you are gonna take it, I suggest taking it every night for a while to make sure that you are completely 100% functional the day after. Don't wanna risk any crazy effects, maybe your body doesn't metabolize it as well as others

So I went and did an experiment on myself and took a 10mg tab. Score improved 24 points (UWSA2 vs UWSA1 taken 2 weeks ago).
I'd like to say Zolpidem improve scores, although I also eat a banana while taking UWSA2

zolpidem stops working as well with a few nights of use; it is generally only used in the short-term.

Lightheadedness is a side effect. Not sure though how your body would react to the drug. I guess it also depends on the dose given.

Can eating a banana be a confounding bias?

Wouldn't it be effect modification since banana has nothing to do with zolpidem action
