Your wife things she took another Ambien pill because she did not remember taking the first is she in any kind of danger?

There should not be any immediate danger, however signs of ambien overdose are very serious, if you are worried just check from time to time to make sure she is breathing normal. HOWEVER 10mg of Ambien (two normal dose pills) should not result in these serious symptoms other than extreme tiredness. On a side note, it is normal with medications like Ambien to forget that you took one and take more and more and more, your wife should create a system where she leaves some indication for herself that she took a dose. Hope this helps!

What is the action of Ambien?

Ambien is a rapid-acting sleep medication. When multiple pills or taken (or you chew the medication) it can cause drowsiness and, in some cases, hallucinations. Taking Ambien recreationally is very, VERY dangerous. Only take the dose that was prescribed to you.


Ambien Cr 12 5 Mg and Ambien 10 Mg taken toghtgher yes?

No, that is too high of a dose to be safe. The Ambien CR releases half the dose when you take it, then the other half a few hours later to help you stay asleep. So you shouldn't add an Ambien 10 mg. to that. If the Ambien CR 12.5 mg is not working well enough, you should call your doctor about it and he or she can figure out something safe that will help.


What are the mg strengths of Ambien and Will it be okay if taken 4 mg of Ambien at one tine?

Ambien (zolpidem) comes in 5 mg and 10 mg strengths and Ambien CR comes in 6.25 mg and 12.5 mg strengths as an extended release. It is impossible to get 4 mg from tablets of the manufactured sizes, so you might want to check the medication strength. The usual dose is from 5 mg to 12.5 mg once daily at bedtime. The dose should not be exceeded.
