The Ambien is a " sleeping pill " that only allows you to go to sleep regardless of how your RLS is doing. I don't think Ambien alone is sufficient to treat most people with RLS. It should only be used in combination with a more " definitive " RLS treatment, e.g. Permax + Ambien. IMHO RAINBOWPED@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 29, 1999 Report Share Posted October 29, 1999 Hi all. I introduced myself a few days ago and then had to change e-mail accounts. Is anyone else on this list on glucophage? I am just starting and my Dr. is ramping up the dosage. I am finally at the final dosage ramp, but I have been having problems with constant nausea. I have tried experimenting with when I am taking it, but unfortunately the only thing I've found that makes it a little better is eating carbs with the medicine. Just wondered if anyone else found this too? I've tried to stay within 20 carbs - but know I have gone over and since I have to take it twice a day - I am really struggling. Any suggestions? Sorry if this is a little off topic. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
