Take half the dose- i. e. 5mg. If you're sleeping a lot with 5mg also, then take half of that. If there are any further problems then please consult as we'll need to discuss before starting some other line of treatment.

You need not worry about the dose. Just choose your doctor properly and then have faith in your doctor. These doses are normally prescribed for this medicine.

Hello sir
Each medicine has different dosage. Don’t be scared by the number 10 behind this.
For eg paracetamol (medicine for pain and fever) comes in doses of 500 to 650 mg. and can be taken more than once a day.
The doctor has guided you well and given adult dosage of zolpidem molecule. (5-10mg) for adults with sleep problem.
Next Steps
Contact your doctor for Clarification. Try to adopt sleep hygiene.
