Ambien

Ambien is a sleep-aid available by prescription to combat insomnia in severe cases of sleep disorder. Safety concerns have cropped up within the medical community regarding the relative safety of the drug. Patients have reported unusual and dangerous side effects while using Ambien. These can include: sleep walking, memory loss, amnesia, binge eating while sleeping, sexual intercourse during sleep, and other alarming problems.

Researchers have determined these side effects to be unique to Ambien and newer drugs of a similar composition (zolpidem tartrates). An estimated 30 million Americans use sleep medications. This figure indicates a massive increase in sleep-aid users over the last 20 years. With the increased use, the risk for dangerous side effects is increased and the potential for successful Ambien lawsuits grows.
