:heythere chachie!
its funny, ambien only really works for a couple of hours (if even that) then it just wears off and your stuck awake. Gotta take it maybe half hour to an hour b4 you go to bed. The last time I took it, I took 2.5 ambiens (10mg each) and knocked out till mid afternoon next day. I made 3 phone calls in my sleep and left the weirdest messages about apples on my friends voicemail that night lol.

I used to sell Ambien a few years ago. I've heard all the stories from late night binge eating to sexual encounters that aren't remembered. More times than not, people have some memory but it felt like a dream.

If you need to take a sleep aid, I still believe that Ambien is the safest of all the agents. Lunesta gives you a shitty/copper taste that you can't get rid of. Sonesta has a very short 1/2 life and Rozarem just doesn't work.

well ambien is considered a hypnotic drug and a sedative. think thats why its addicting. but from the commercials about lunesta, its not supposed be addictive or as addictive as ambien can be. i know for sure ambien is classified as a hypnotic drug.

your totally right and on the money with that. opiates can totally change a persons behavior. its all about the euphoria u feel on it and thats why people pop 10+ pills of vics just to get it. its ridiculous. and yea..OC is pretty much heroin in a coated tab.

Is lunesta and the others considered a hypnotic drug as well?

Good question.


Ambien, Lunesta, Ambien CR, & Sonata are all Hypnotics in the "NON BENZO" category.

None of these drugs are physically addictive, meaning there are not physical withdrawls when you stop taking them. That being said, most people in the medical field know that these are all Phychologically addictive. People start feeling like they need them to sleep and if they stop taking them, they don't sleep.

Ambien CR is the only one of the Hypnotics indicated for long term use.

Xanex on the other hand, is a Benzo and there have been cases of noted physical withdrawls after discontinuation of long time use. Be careful with this one...

We stopped promoting Ambien IR (initial release) because it went Generic. We then came out with Ambien CR (Controlled Release) and have had a lot of pushback from physicians & patients on this. It takes too long to take effect and then when it does, it leaves the person drowsy the next morning.

I don't have it in my bag anymore, thank god because I couldn't sell it in good faith. My wife takes regular Ambien as the CR turns her into a zombie. I've never been a huge fan of the CR.

your wife doesnt get any side effects from the ambien? i swear, everytime i take it....i end up doing something that night that i just cant remember the next morning. is there anything else that could help as a sleeping aid other than a hypnotic drug? valerian root?

You could try Chamomile tea but that will only relax you, it probably won't put you to sleep.

Have you tried Hypnosis? I've been told that it's worked on some insomniacs.


As for the side effects, the only time my wife ever experienced anything like you describe was on the CR. The Ambien IR knocked her out to the world and she stayed asleep until morning. Every now and then it would wear off around like 3am and then she was screwed. The biggest mistake one could make is to take another dose. Then you're screwed up for days.
