Important for Health - guitarist - 05-30-2008
Ambien is used to treat insomnia. According to experts, this medication causes relaxation to help you fall asleep and stay asleep.
Some might consider it overkill, but there's little doubt that it is more effective at treating insomnia than currently-available over-the-counter medications, and is comprehensive enough to be effective at treating other ailments as well.

There is going to be a class-action suit against Ambien which could be the largest ever.
Walking blackouts are such a common side effect of this drug that it is astounding it has not been pulled yet.
Highly addictive and carries strange interactions with many other drugs.
Excellent Simpsons episode on the topic and not particularly exaggerated.

Nothing beat Halcion (Triazolam) in its heyday. Merced comes from these roots.
And Ambien would never have had those effects if MDs would have stuck to the 1 week
or 2 week limitation.

my mom tried it and had problems the very first night (and day after).
Tossed 'em and has an extra glass of wine.

There are other things that can relax you before sleep time too.

Best things I've found to help get met to sleep are eating well and exercise.
