Simple Changes May Help You
Get the Sleep You Need

Practicing good "sleep hygiene" may help you sleep better. Sleep hygiene involves adopting healthy lifestyle habits and making sure that your bedtime routine and sleep environment are as "sleep-friendly" as possible.

AMBIEN CR is indicated for the treatment of insomnia.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

AMBIEN CR is a treatment option you and your healthcare provider can consider along with lifestyle changes and can be taken for as long as your provider recommends. Until you know how AMBIEN CR will affect you, you shouldn't drive or operate machinery. Be sure you're able to devote 7 to 8 hours to sleep before being active again. Sleepwalking, and eating or driving while not fully awake, with amnesia for the event, have been reported. If you experience any of these behaviors contact your provider immediately. In rare cases, sleep medicines may cause allergic reactions such as swelling of your tongue or throat, shortness of breath or more severe results. If you have an allergic reaction while using AMBIEN CR, contact your doctor immediately. Side effects may include next-day drowsiness, dizziness, and headache. It's non-narcotic; however, like most sleep medicines, it has some risk of dependency. Don't take it with alcohol.

Please see additional important information. Please refer to the full prescribing information.
