Ambien ( Zolpidem ) has not adequately demonstrated effectiveness in maintaining sleep; however, it is effective in initiating sleep. Its hypnotic effects are similar to those of the benzodiazepine class of drugs, but it is molecularly distinct from the classical benzodiazepine molecule and is classified as an imidazopyridine.

zolpidem is one of the most prescribed medication for sleep.

What is the drug alprazolam?

Xanax = alprazolam Alprazolam is the (only) active ingredient in the Brand Name medication known as Xanax. Xanax is known as "Tafil" in Mexico, and is known under different Brand Names in other countries, but its active ingredient is still alprazolam. Here in Canada, generic alprazolam is frequently prescribed. Although the name Xanax doesn't necessarily appear on the bottle, the pharmacist knows that a prescription for alprazolam is the same as Xanax. Generic medications are just as good as their Brand Name equivalents, and contain the same active ingredient(s), but are virtually always more economical (because of the lack of advertising money spent by the pharmaceutical companies).
