Zolpidem is a more hazardous drug than you may realize, and should never be taken in doses which exceed 10mg per day. Allergic reaction is common to users of Zolpidem, showing itself as rash, hives and sore throat. What's more frightening are reports of hallucinations, memory loss, mood swings, personality changes and general confusion among users of Zolpidem. Generally marketed under the name Ambien, Zolpidem is becoming more and more commonly used in the treatment of insomnia. Though it is quite similar to benzodiazepines like Valium and Xanax it actually does not belong to this family of drugs. Zolpidem can be quite damaging to the liver and kidneys, and is also not recommended for any person with a lung disease. All of this should be discussed with your doctor before taking Zolpidem, but alternatives to Zolpidem for sleep disorders should be considered first.

There are two types of non prescription sleep aids: pharmaceutical and herbal. Even though they are non prescription sleep aids, the pharmaceutical type still have side effects. This is because most non prescription sleep aids are made from an antihistamine and this causes a lot of daytime drowsiness and can lead to a dependency, though less so than with prescription sleep aids. Herbal non prescription sleep aids however do not have this problem, and are generally much safer and cheaper than pharmaceutical sleep drugs. They allow you to get natural sleep, which is much better sleep quality. Despite the fact they are more commonly used, pharmaceutical non prescription sleep aids are usually no more effective that their herbal counterparts but many people see them as being more convenient. This is not true, herbal non prescription sleep aids can easily be ordered online or bough at a local health store.
