Best Answer

The half life of zolpidem (Ambien) is around 3 hours. There is no feasible way you tested positive after not taking Ambien for 3 weeks. You would have to be in some serious kidney and liver failure for that to be the case. If your license is on the line and you really went that long without taking zolpidem, then challenge the results and re-test if they will let you. Drink plenty of fluids before your test.
