Thank you for sharing your case. Yes, Onirex (zolpidem) can cause side effects such as memory gaps, impaired concentration, and paranoid symptoms.
Onirex is a hypnotic drug with a similar effect to benzodiazepines, used for a short period of time to treat insomnia. Possible side effects include, m.in, hallucinations, agitation, nightmares, and less commonly, delusional states and memory disorders.
Paranoid behavior may be related to the effects of the drug on the central nervous system, especially if the drug is used inconsistently or in sensitive individuals. Memory gaps (amnesia) are a known, though rare, side effect of zolpidem. If you experience such symptoms, you should immediately consult a doctor to assess further treatment and possibly change the therapy.

I encourage you to report the symptoms you experience to your doctor, as well as to report the occurrence of an adverse effect of the preparation. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:
