Exactly...try to remember Behav Sci... it has quick onset and short half life. Exactly what u need to develop a habit.

you guys consider a consider a half life of 10 - 20 hours short??????????
(I think that one BZD that has a longer half life is nitrazepam-15-40hrs)

Sorry guys, I meant to say it has a shorter half life, but is more potent than the others listed, hence has a tendency to develop dependency. I got confused.
