ambien and vodka

I also have this problem when drinking red wine and to a lesser degree white wine. I noticed that vodka does not affect me in this way and have read that it is low in tyramine. What other alcoholic beverages are low in tyramine? Is Cider low in tyramine?

Alcohol allergy and a variety of alcohol reactions including flushing, nausea, and discomfort are important considerations. Try to avoid the trigger/ vodka tonic and have this checked by your doctor also if it persists. Take care and do keep us posted.

Now i have no energy to spend all day masterbating,so i drink to avoid the throbbing. I took a swig of vodka,xanax and ambien and only slept three hours, right side is hurting.

I work weekdays from 8-4 so I wake up at 7am and I go to bed around 9 and watch TV or play on my laptop and try to be asleep by 11. I need TV or a laptop as a distraction to wind my mind down. I don't read so that's out of the question. I take Elavil, Xanax (.5mg), and Restoril (30mg) to help me fall asleep, but NOTHING has eve helped me STAY asleep. When I go to sleep, I turn my TV or laptop off so there's no lig]ht anywhere near my eyes. I also take melatonin.

Is drinking vodka like about small peg bottle make me gain weight.. I drink may be once or twice a week..

Well that being said, I am addicted to hydrocodone and ambien, which started innocently enough but very quickly grew into something far beyond pain management. Since I was 21 its been one addiction or another. I smoked meth for several years and one day hated myself so much that with Gods help I walked away clean and never again had so much as a twinge of want for it again.

Have you had your ears checked by your family doctor?Too much vodka can make the head,and the ears buzz!

Ambien will help you get some sleep so yes I would say it is good. I worked for a Dr. before and the highest dose I saw given was a total of 12mg. So if the tab was 6mg then the patient could take 2. Taking 2 10mg of ambien seems a little high to me.Maybe someone else could answer better than me. I am one of those people that ambien doesn't work. I have tried Ambien cr, Lunesta (sp?) and regular Ambien and still couldn't get any sleep.

I'm no doctor, so I definitely can't give you any medical information on Ambien, but I can relay my personal experience with it. I've been on Ambien (currently 10mg) for SEVERAL years now (5 or more). I have many chronic pain conditions, including fibroymalgia. One of the major symptoms of fibro is insomnia - which I definitely suffer from!

Does she think it's an issue? Personally,I think Ambien is a dangerous drug to be taking all the time. But,if she can't sleep and hasn't increased her dose for a year,then this is her lifestyle. I don't agree with it either but I know insomnia can be just horrible. There are other things she can take. If she wants to try it, suggest Melatonin and Valerian root. It's safe and it works for a lot of people. However,anyone on SSRI's should avoid Melatonin.

Hello mom and welcome. Heroin and ambien are both central nervous system depressants. Taken together it is very dangerous as they both depress the respiratory and central nervous system. How old is your son? Does he live with you? How long has he been Abusing drugs for?

I have the same problem! Only Vodka and tequila!!! And to the commenter, it's not a contradiction, and she's not an alcoholic in need of sobriety... I stick to Rum only... Maybe Whisky is your thing... I've tried looking into this and it has something to do with the processing of the plants used to make the alcohol..

he drinks 3-4 gallons of vodka a month..... and has for years. Im actually breaking up with him this weekend after a 6 yr relationship. just cant handle his behavior and my kids come 1st. he does not get along with my 11 yr old son. what does this much drinking do to someone just wondering....

He now has very little appetite, has little muscle strength, and is beginning to have issues with vomiting. What would be a possible result if his vodka were watered down reducing the vodka strength in half?

At least 6-7 years at a pop and can stop it with very mild consequences. Some lack of sleep and maybe some headaches and neck/back pain but really nothing. Try OTC Advil pm or something maybe.

She is sleep/wake having conversations she doesnt remember and and having conversations with us that did not happen, Sleep walking, cleaning.... Is this common and should Ambien be prescribed to teens with PTS?

I can't believe how much I'm hurting. A vodka and an Ambien didn't touch it tonight. I'm trashing around and doubled over. I pray my surgeon is able to accept the lost X Ray via my husband's email. I have to believe my hip is not 'marginal' and they will operate November 1st.

There are some health issues but my question is can the heavy drinking of vodka everyday have poisoned her and caused liver damage. Severe nausea, weakness, yellow diarrhea and pain in upper abdomen around to right side. Is this possible? Bouts of heavy chills are increasing.

Nope, not really an addiction to Vodka... she prefers rum actually, lol... but its just she says an allergy to it. I think the fact that they were in the form of Jello Shooters that she was a little luckier that way and it wasn't STRAIGHT vodka going into her system that she wasn't hospitalized form it. Thanks for the post, will await further posts as well.

most things you cook with alcohol or use alcohol to enhance the flavor like wine in gravy or beer in a stew or vodka in vodka sauce you cook out the alcohol at a certain temperature. i avoided my mother in-laws rum cake forever because i had the same thought. but was told it isnt an issue.

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.

Hi, I was just googling Ambien and Lexapro and read your question. I take Ambien here and there, since I have trouble staying asleep, and have recently become severely depressed and got some Lexapro from a friend, (I know not the best thing to do, but... such is life), but wanted to know if you had any issues taking the two.

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.

Namaste, It could be a side effect of the Ambien. Are you experencing these symptoms just in the morning or all day? Try not taking the Ambien for a few days and see if yor symptoms improve and if they do, you'll know the cause.

I just started 20 mg of generic Celexa (3 days ago) and the doc also gave me Ambien and Klonopin (take .25mg) to relieve the anxiety until the Celexa kicks in. I wake up shaky/hot and kind of panicky. Which drug is this from drugs, or is it still the anxiety. I know this takes time, but I don't want to mess with any drugs that might be making the symptoms worse (i.e Klonopin or Ambien). I also don't want to become dependent on the Klonopin and ambien either.
