Ambien CR Sleep Medicine – Probably Has More Side Effects Than Crack

So I was watching Television (Comedy Central) and I saw this ad that had some really weird side effects.  Check out the commercial that I thought was a joke, but turned out to be real.

AMBIEN CR is a treatment option you and your doctor can consider along with lifestyle changes and can be taken for as long as your doctor recommends. When taking AMBIEN CR, don’t drive or operate machinery. Plan to devote 7 to 8 hours to sleep before being active. Sleepwalking, and eating or driving while not fully awake, with memory loss for the event, as well as abnormal behaviors such as being more outgoing or aggressive than normal, confusion, agitation, and hallucinations may occur. Don’t take it with alcohol as it may increase these behaviors. Allergic reactions such as shortness of breath, swelling of your tongue or throat, may occur and in rare cases may be fatal. In patients with depression, worsening of depression, including risk of suicide may occur. If you experience any of these behaviors or if you have an allergic reaction while using AMBIEN CR contact your doctor immediately. Side effects may include next-day drowsiness, dizziness and headache. AMBIEN CR has some risk of dependency. It’s non-narcotic.
