What will taking Ambien and morphine together do?

Answer 1

you may not want to do that since both drugs make you drowsy and also slow your breathing and heart rate

(Also, please see the EXCELLENT answer to "Is it OK to mix Percocet with Ambien").

I agree with the above poster! Thanks.

This happened to me whereby I must have experienced reported Ambien disassociation and took morphine and other pills possibly and overdosed. My wife saw me in bed, foam in mouth, out of it, and when I arrived in the ER room, my breathing stopped for about 5 seconds.

I spent over 3 weeks in ICU with renal, pulmonary, and possibly brain failure (at least delerium), and also had the gift of respiratory pneumonia.

Before I took Ambien, I never experienced disassociation. When I arrived home, I took Ambien twice and I felt like I was in a party, heard voices, laughter, and tried to hide this from my wife; also, my vision was very foggy and I could not navigate well. I could not even read a thermostat.

This cost me out of pocket about $20K with excellent insurance, and the bills are coming. I cannot sue any doctor b/c the authorities say that both Ambien and Morphine have "Moderate" synergestic effects.

I hope this story provides a warning against those in pain, and those stupid enough to use any opiates with respiratory depressant, like alcohol, downers, Ambien - or for that matter, opiates with anything, nor opiates for a reason, namely, intractable pain. Thanks.
