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.
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.
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.
I asked my doc the same question today. I'm NOT sure about klonopin, I don't take that drug. My doctor said that taking ambien (zolpidem) together with ativan (lorazepam) is safe, since it functions on different receptors in the brain. So there shouldn't be a synnergic effect.
No, a doctor cannot prescribe 30 mg of Ambien (zolpidem) per night, as the maximum recommended dose for adults is typically 10 mg. Dosing higher than this can increase the risk of side effects and dependence. Always follow a healthcare provider's recommendations regarding medication use.
