Avatar f tn I just tok 700 mg of soma 10mg of ambien and .5 mg of xanax at the same time. ..is this ok?
Avatar f tn I am so grateful for Dr. Sherr's articles! They were so helpful in explaining some of what was going on inside my body. The Bell's Palsy of the Gut was very eye opening for me. I have definitely had the sensitivity issue.
Avatar n tn not enough to even worry about right now, though. Ambien is of course a new sleep aid and the jury is still out. People have amnesia on ambien. They go to sleep, but then wake and do silly/stupid stuff. They have no recollection of this after they awaken. One case went so far as to claim a homicide that the defendant had no memory of. That one did not work. A tolerance and dependance will develop with the zanax if used for a great length of time.
Avatar f tn I want to quit taking xanax and ambien. I have been on both for a few years. I also take Subxone. I take 12.5 mg of ambien and .5mg of xanax 2 or 3 times per day. Can I quit cold turkey without? I have heard xanax withdrawal can cause seizures,, but am not sure if my dose is high enough to worry about that.
Avatar f tn Hey guys, I was takin 40-50 pills of coricidin (the OTC cough med for people with high blood pressure), and cuz i couldnt get them one day I over dosed on xanax and ambien and lyrica. I take Lyrica for my fibromyalgia on a regular basis, was hospitalized and not detoxed medically was not given anything to help with the detox symptoms. Drank last night (10-30-10) 2 drinks and am a WRECK today (Halloween) going to a party tonight and taking my children trick or treating. I'm a mess.
Avatar m tn t sound like you have a problem with the meds,do you? Ambien is a pretty strong med (so is xanax/alprazolam) and both are addictive if used improperly so please talk to your doctor about how you are feeling physically after the ambien.
Avatar n tn t know about an overdose, but taking more than you are supposed to can cause sleep walking, but in my case it was sleep driving. It is very dangerous and you should not play around with it. I HATE AMBIEN!!!
1687929 tn?1319426011 I also take xanax so what I do is take my xanax an hour or so before going to bed and take the ambien when I go and lay down. When I was prescribed ambien I tried taking it while still being up and it didn't help me at all. Taking it right when I go to bed seems to help. I sleep a little longer and heavier. Hope this helps a little bit.
Avatar f tn I need a quick answer. A friend of mine took 6 norcs and about 1 mg of my Xanax. Should I call a doctor or will he be fine? I'm very worried, he has been taking norcos for a long time now about 10 per day but he has never taken Xanax.
Avatar f tn The doctor said I should try ambien and gave me a rx that I have not gotten filled yet. Has anyone tried this and how did they react. Please any input would be helpful.
Avatar m tn It has come to a point where I need to medicate myself with several different medicines in order to fall asleep. I usually take Ambien 10 mg and I take two od those and sometimes Xanax 1 mg. I have noticed that Ambien doesnt really help much anymore. I just feel weird when I take it. Sometimes when I dont take anything to sleep and I manage to fall asleep, I have very vivid dreams and nightmares. Even after taking medicine, I dont usually fall asleep until 4 am and I am up at 8 or 9.
Avatar f tn You have the Ambien that will help..maybe just take the Xanax as needed to cut back and give it up soon..Both meds are addicting so please be careful. Good Job on giving up the Trams..I know those w/ds can be just as bad as my Methadone with my 2 other meds..Good Job!!
Avatar f tn needless to say i definitely fealt the need to take tylenol pm or unisom(usually doxxylamine succinate or diphenyldramine,both sedating anti-histamines) everynight to help me sleep, but i never fealt truly addicted to it and it wasnt like there was a shortage of it, unfortunately there never seemed to be a shortage with ambien, xanax, and so on either....
585477 tn?1218360618 i know i drove my car and was stopped by a citizen and helped back home cause apparently i was swerving all over the road. i dont know where i was going!!! I JUST DONT remember the LAST FEW DAYS. i dont think the hospital knew what was wrong with me. is it poosible they did drug test and found that much in my system and helped me?i jUst need to know what happened in my life the past few days? AND did the hospital save me?
Avatar m tn I was precribed ambien for my sleeping problems and then larter prescribed xanax. So my question is just this.is it a good idea to take an AMBIENCR and a XANAX in the same night before bed?
Avatar f tn I have taken ambien off and on as needed and have had no problems but you shouldnt have to take ambien if you have the klonopin because that in itself often causes drowsiness so it shoulld help you sleep. So to sum up. Take KLONOPIN as prescribed and your wellbutrin as prescribed. Do not take xanax or ambien that is overmedicating and overkill.
Avatar f tn It would be hard to tell which drug is making u feel like this, but from my experience of taking both at the same time like u are, I would say it is more the ambien. Maybe try a few nights of no ambien and see if u start feeling better? And then figure out a way to taper off the xanax.
Avatar f tn I just got a script of Ambien 10mg and take 3 2mg Xanax a day for six years.
Avatar n tn t know about Ambien but I do know xanax and you need to do a very slow taper with it there is the possibility of seizures if you stop suddenly do you have a doctor you can ask about tapering? xanax w/d is very ugly and last alot longer than opiate w/d you will have anxiety times 100, no sleep shaking panic attacks headache muscle aches depression,the list goes on,nausea,vomiting, potty issues,anger issues,crying for no reaon sensitivity to light sound and touch, go to benzo.
Avatar f tn Does anyone know a capable doctor in Florida who can help someone taper off of Ambien and Xanax - Tampa area?
Avatar m tn this is just my experience, and I'm not on tx yet...I can't take Lunesta and ambien, ambien makes me feel nutzo the next morning, but many people are fine with it...I take ativan if I have had a lot of sleepless nights in a row, and at a very low dose...I find tranquilizers lull me into sleep, which I prefer...best of luck...
491910 tn?1209366193 then 30...and so on until its 5 then jump off. I have ambien,rozerem scripts myself but stopped the ambien and made it a once a week or less thing because it can be bad news. You might want to see if the Dr will switch you to say lunesta and see if you can use that while getting off ambien or when you tapered low enough to jump and switch. Good luck.
Avatar f tn Is it posssible to overdose on Xanax ? My mother-in-law was found dead , and it is persumed that she overdosed on Xanax for which she was taken off some time ago, and had a surplus of Xanax.
Avatar m tn hey sharon - welcome. I'm 45 days off hydros and I'm almost two weeks into being off both xanax and ambien - both of which I took as prescribed and didn't abuse them. I tried to come off everything at once which was really awful so I stayed on the xanax and ambien until recently.
Avatar m tn I took tablets vepridone and ambien 2 months ago, doctors saved my life but now I am having shaky hands, I can't write and I feel extremely uncomfortable all the time. My question is, Is it due to drug withdrawl or it can get permanent side affect. What should I do now? Doctors also gave resperidone and a sleeping tablet for 2 weeks after treatment I was fine while I was using these tablets.
Avatar m tn I am horribly addicted to ambien. And before anyone says this, I am seeing my dr. tomorrow. But I wanted to see if anyone has had experience overcoming ambien addictions. I have been taking it almost every night for a year. I am treated for depression with wellbutrin and celexia. I think the ambien started to become a problem this summer, when I would take it on days that were particularly bad and I was anxious.
Avatar m tn i am prescribed xanax 3 times a day but would i die or overdose if i took 2 ..
