Ambien works very quickly. The onset is usually within 10-15 minutes.

If you cannot sleep, even with a sleep aid such as Ambien, then it is important to make sure you do not have some emotional or psychiatric problem that keeps you from sleeping. Insomnia is usually an emotional or psychiatric disorder, especially if it is persistent beyond one or two nights.

Insomnia can be a symptom of depression or of som more serious condition. One serious psychiatric condition that has become increasingly more often recognized is bipolar disorder with manic manifestations. I'm not saying you are depressed or bipolar, but the logical next step is to see a mental health specialist. If you do have a psychiatric problem, it would be far better to identify it now and get it treated than to wait until it really causes serious interference with your life.

should put you yo sleep but there is always an exception...try a different sleep aid....try warm bath before going to bed....
