Ambien Parasomnia (including Z-mailing, driving, sleep-walking, Z-phoning)

[Guest guest]

A number of lawsuits have now been filed regarding Ambien use due to auto

accidents and a woman who froze to death after sleepwalking outdoors.

Ambien Side Effects - Sleepwalking, Memory Loss, Hallucinations & More

I discuss findings from our independent research involving hundreds of

Ambien users regarding the effect the sleeping pill may have on the user.

Looking to find out about the main side effects of Ambien sleeping pills? If

so, I have some unbiased and useful information to share with you.

My research team has conducted independent research by scouring through

dozens of online message boards and collecting data from over actual 350 Ambien

users.

Ignorance of Drug's Effect

One disturbing and important point that immediately made itself clear when

conducting our research is that most people who are considering using Ambien

or even those who are currently taking Ambien are not aware of the side

effects of the drug.

Put differently, users are often partially if not totally ignorant of what

they are getting themselves into. What is worse is that the doctors who

prescribe Ambien seem to often be just as uninformed as the patient when it

comes

to being aware of the side effects, dangers and downsides.

Sleep Acting

Are side effects common among Ambian users? It would seem so. About half of

Ambian users included in our research said that they experience side effects.

The most common side effect or downside is sleep acting. This is a broader

and more bizarre activity than mere sleepwalking and can involve sleep

talking, sleep cooking, sleep cleaning, sleep driving, sleep swearing, sleep

sex,

sleep emailing, sleep phoning, and more.

In addition, Ambien users say that they have little or no memory of sleep

acting. They are usually informed of their actions the next day, often by

family members. Also, it is not uncommon for the actions that the Ambien user

took

while under the drug's influence to be embarrassing.

Additional reported side effects include hallucinations, next day

drowsiness, anxiety & panic attacks, lucid dreams and intense, highly

disturbing

nightmares.
