You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Like all drugs on the market, Ambien comes with a long list of potential side effects. The most common ones are: weakness, dry mouth, feeling drugged, an upset stomach, dizziness, headaches and nausea, throat irritation, diarrhea, dry mouth and feeling sluggish or drowsy. Many of these sounds like symptoms of you average cold and exhaustion. Drowsiness, dizziness and diarrhea were the most observed side effects in clinical trials.

There are a list of particularly nasty side effects that need to be brought to the attention of a doctor immediately if they occur in anyone taking Ambien. Among them are hallucinations, irregular heartbeat, allergic reactions that cause hives or swelling, fainting, depression, suicidal thoughts, chest pain and difficulty breathing. Because these side effects can so severe, many doctors will often try and find natural ways to help a person sleep better before resorting to this sort of medication.

For reference and in case it is needed, the actual name of the Ambien drug is Zolpidem. If you scroll down on the page for the second link I listed in the sources, you will find patient reviews of the drug.
