Increases total sleep time
ModerateEvidence strength: moderate. Human evidence with one recorded weakness, or capped at moderate by its design or by unread numbers.Finding“Meta-analysis of data from 4 studies showed that zolpidem increased total sleep time compared to placebo or no drug (MD: 0.78, 95% CI: 0.19–1.37, P =.009, I2 = 38%; Fig. 4).”
