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.

This is not because I’m looking to high this is because I take higher doses to get to sleep then most.
If I’ve taken 3 ambien two nights then 1 ambien one night then if I take 4 ambien (20mg) b/c of my 5 mg tablets will I get high? That’s IF I don’t pass out ofcourse.
Your answers are appreciated.
Chosen Answer:
It’s hard to say if you will get “high”. The effects of ambien when you stay awake are varied, but usually include weird spacey feelings and a loss of memory. You do things, say things, go places, and don’t remember any of it. People have taken ambien, gone to bed, and woken up in jail, the hospital, or the gutter with no memory of how they got there. Some people die. The more you take, the more likely it is for this to happen. And the more likely dependency and physical addiction are to develop. Which means the withdrawals when you quit will be worse. Withdrawal from ambien and recovery can be like someone opening a door to hell and shoving you through. Recover can take over a year.
