I am on prozac and was taking ambien for a while. I felt so wierd. does anyone else have any ambien or ambien prozac or other sleep pill/ anti depressiant stories. I havd to take myself off ambien.
I guess Typical ambien reactions. Spacy, memory loss etc. I guess this stuff is pretty bad, so i will stop taking it. It is not the prozac. it is the ambien.

Chosen Answer:

I got those feelings also. I was first on ambien with zoloft then they changed it because they thought i was having wierd moments with both meds together. But even when they changed me to prozac, i still had wierd nights. You godda be carefull with the ambien. I was hooked on it for a while and kinda got addicted. It sorta pulls people in, But i think it makes you do funny things if you take it every night.

I remember when i took it i would do “crazy” things at night, including crying for no aparent reason, then when i were to wake up the next day , i wouldnt remember anything…But that was me, its happen to people also but it goes away the more you pull away your doses. But that ambien had me hooked for a while to the point i wouldnt even give my body the chance to sleep without it. But your not the only one. My advice would be to slowly lower your doses and the amount of nights you take it a week…

Coming from a “former” ambien “addict” thats what i did and im off it now..GOod luck

i am on 50mg of Pamelor which is an anti-depressant. its a low dosage and is used to prevent chronic migraines rather than depression. i’ve been having trouble sleeping lately and want to take an Ambien tonight. would the combination cause any weird problem for me?

Chosen Answer:

It shouldn’t just take one ambien, and it shouldn’t effect you in any negative way, i am on anti depressants, and was on ambien and it didn’t do anything bad.

  • What Is Ambien (Zolpidem) ?

    Ambien is a sedative, also called a hypnotic. It affects chemicals in your brain that may become unbalanced and cause sleep problems (insomnia).

     

     

    Ambien is used for the short-term treatment of insomnia (difficulty falling or staying asleep). This medication causes relaxation to help you fall asleep.
