Brief Answer:
Detailed answer below.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Last reported adverse effects of Zolpidem include neuropsychiatric reactions such visual hallucinations, delirium, amnesia, sleepwalking, night eating syndrome and sensory disturbances/ distortion.
In most countries it is a prescription drug that is partially or not at all covered by medical systems. But I am not aware of any such studies.
Usually side effects subside within few weeks after stopping it.
