Ambien is used to treat: Insomnia
(Short-term treatment) to help you fall asleep and stay
asleep for a proper rest. Ambien ( Zolpidem ) is a hypnotic
prescribed in the short-term treatment of insomnia (difficulty
falling or staying asleep), frequent awakening, or persistent
early waking. Ambien interacts with the GABA-BZ receptor
complex and shares some of the pharmacological properties
of the benzodiazepines. Ambien usually begins working
in about 15 minutes. Ambien is metabolized much more
quickly than other common sleep medications, so is far
less likely to leave you feeling sleepy in the morning.
Ambien is available in 5 mg and 10 mg doses with the
ambien 10 mg dose being the most common.
(These are common indications for ambien. There may
be additional conditions not listed here. Check with
your doctor if you have questions about your specific
