Yes, ambien will show up in a drug screen. Ambien is a narcotic sleep aide.
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!
The recommended dose for Ambien CR is 12.5mg - 100mg is way too high!
Yes.
Depends on the size of the dose. Most likely yes it is overdose
Generally speaking, the maximum recommended dose for zolpidem (Ambien) is 10mg once per day before sleep. This is one of those rare occassions where the 10mg tablet actually is the maximum recommended dose.
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.
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.
The question is unclear. The normal dose for one chemical may be up to a thousand times the normal dose for another. Generally a normal dose of OTC medication is prescribed in milligrams (mg)
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.
yes its too much.....regular dose is between 5-10 mg
this question is a little odd. r u ok?
