I am not an expert on Ambien, however my understanding is that one of its purposes is to help reset your sleep cycle. And in order to accomplish this, you need to take it regularly, EVERY night.

And there is hope - one of my friends who was on Ambien said it totally worked to reset her sleep cycle and now she doesn't need it anymore unless her cycle gets messed up again.
Arovd is absolutely correct, honey. You have to take the meds every night to maintain the therapeutic level and to allow it to correct your sleep cycle.
