Color Of Pill Changed
I have been taking Zolpidem 10 mg for several months for insomnia. It mostly works pretty well. I got a new supply from my insurance (Medco) and instead of white, the pill is pale orange. Is there is reasonable explanation for this?

Zolipidem
FORGETTING THINGS YOU DID? Just wondering if anyone has experienced memory loss. I can remember brief flashes of things I may have done prior to falling asleep but cannot recall the actual experience...which is extremely odd for me. For example, I texted several messages to someone but had no memory of it the next morning other than breif flash backs of seeing my cell phone in my hand. It was hard to distinguish between reality and dreams because the dreams seem very real and plausible. I usually dream about mundane things when I take this medication. Anyone else?
