Ambien (zolpidem) and Lunesta (eszopiclone) are both prescription medications used to treat insomnia, but they have different active ingredients and slightly different mechanisms of action. Ambien is typically used for short-term treatment of sleep onset insomnia and has a rapid onset, while Lunesta is often preferred for longer-term use and can help maintain sleep throughout the night. Additionally, Lunesta has a longer half-life, which may lead to a residual sedative effect the next day. Both medications can have side effects and potential for dependency, so they should be used under medical supervision.
