Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

Zolpidem tablets are safe for someone with liver or kidney disease.

To my patients, I use a dose of 10 mg once daily at nights.

It is a prescription medication and you can get it prescribed by your doctor.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
