I had a drug screen test, it showed up as having restoril in it. I didn't know what it was or ever taken it, my scripts include, lortab, Xanax, ambien, Zanaflex, promethazine gel, atenolol, nexium, b-12, multi vitamin, Lamictal, liquid Zoloft in four ounces orange juice, I also have to drink an atkins protein drink where I had gastric bypass two months ago. Can any of this taken together cause restoril to show up in a urine drug screen? My Dr is not wanting to give me my meds. I have major reoccurring depression, and anxiety, fibromyalgia, and a nerve messed up in my back. I need help!!! ## I have had 2 urine drug tests come back positive for Restoril at my doctor's office. I've never taken that medicine before in my life.

I bought in mexico. It is scored on one side. I bought it as generic ambien but I don't even know the strength of the pill. Can anyone help me? ## Are there any markings on the tablet? If not, it will be virtually impossible to confirm what it is, unless you would pay to have it lab tested. This is one of the hazards of buying foreign medications. I've not even seen this tablet mentioned, before. I am sorry, I wish I could be of more help. Is anyone else familiar with this tablet? ## Did you ever take the ambien you got from Mexico or find out any more info on it? I just got some as well. Round, orange tablets. Scored one one side and unmarked on the other. It should be 10mgs but I have no way of telling or even telling if its generic ambien. I got it at Discount Pharmacy in Nog...

I purchased this drug as a sleep aid when i was in mexico recently - told to take 10mg @ night. Will this medication work? ## Hi Madmaggie, hope you had a good time in Mexico. Can you please post more details about what medication you were given? Did it come in any packaging or have any brand name / active ingredients listed? What did the pharmacy say it was for? ## The name on the bottle says they are called ciclobenzaprina clorhidrato. And they are 10ml yellow tablets and the company name on the bottle is pharma rx. I was advised by the pharmacist to take 1 per night to help me sleep. ## Ok, the medication you have is called Cyclobenzaprine Hydrochloride (English translation) - which is classified as a muscle relaxer. Its main purpose is to relieve skeletal muscle spasms and it's ...

I'm trying to identify a small peach colored sleeping pill. One side has a small square on the front with five dots in it and the other side says 10 MG. ## This tablet is listed as containing 10mgs of Zolpidem, which is a generic for Ambien, it is used for the short term treatment of insomnia. The FDA lists the its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, funny taste, and next day hangover-like effects. Is there anything else I can help with?

After trying Sonata for chronic insomnia, my doctor put me on Lunesta. At first, I took 1 mg which just made me sleepier and grumpier. So she moved me up to 3 mg. This works well but I wake up so sleepy that by mid afternoon I have to take a nap. By evening I feel great, am wide awake, and full of energy. I am a night owl so I stay up until 11:30 or midnight. I have taken the pill earlier but I stay up for awhile. Should I try to go to bed when I take the pill or wait until later to take it around the time I go to bed? I need hangover help. ## Next day hangover-like effects are a normal side effect of this medication, according to FDA reports. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, and odd taste. And yes, it should be taken within half an hour of when you are going to bed. Ho...

This pill is different from the one I was taking at 1st and it definitely doesn't work like the other pill which leads me to believe it's more of a placebo than the actual medicine. I need to know if I should bring this to my doctor's attention? ## Is the marking possible a stylized E with 79 on the opposite side? If so, this tablet is manufactured by Aurobindo Pharma and they list it as containing 10mgs of Zolpidem, which is a generic for Ambien. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, sleep actions, and next-day hangover-like effects. Is that the medication you were supposed to receive?

It was a long day and I accidentally dropped my APO-10 pill that was wrapped in tissue into the wet sink. I pulled them out immediately but they all dissolved into the tissue. Can they be saved? I took a bit of the blue tissue and threw it back with a piece of bread.

Does anyone know anything I can take OTC that works in the way trazadone 50 mg does? Ambien never helped and all the other Rx for sleep....I do also know this is an antidepressant. I just kicked methadone after some years so my Rx ran out early. Haven't been sleeping at all...thanks ?? ## Unfortunately, no there isn't an OTC medication that will work like it does, that's why they are OTC and these others require prescriptions. The FDA warns that most of these carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, mood changes, and sedation. There are some medications available OTC to help with insomnia, have you tried any of them? Are you on any other medications? ## Verwon- Thanks for your reply melatonin does not work for m...

I recently made the effort to discuss my problems with insomnia again, after many years, with my doctor. Without insurance, I floundered for years while exploring my options. I had initially found a manufacturer's coupon online some years ago that did away with the copay that my at-the-time insurance coverage would leave me to pay, which was $10. The coupon did away with this fee, allowing me to receive my medication for free, at $0. I was originally prescribed this medication in 2011/2012, with wonderful results that allowed for a much appreciated uplift in my mood and energy. Upon being once again prescribed this medication, this time lacking any insurance, even - I attempted to navigate towards lunesta.com in hopes that I could receive the same deal, or at least one similar - and...

Just wanted a answer to how long ambien starts to work, for the insomnia. And how long does, it help for ## Ambien starts to work within minutes of taking it, which is why the monograph instructs you to take it right when you are laying down to sleep and not any earlier. Learn more Ambien details here. As to how long it helps for, the regular release really isn't intended to help you stay asleep, it's meant for those that have trouble falling asleep. If you have trouble staying asleep, there is a controlled release formulation that you can ask your doctor about. Side effects may include nausea, drowsiness, hallucinations and next day hangover like effects.

I have been taking generic Temazepam 30mg. They were a off white color. Now they have changed them to Yellow Mylan 5050. They are both capsules and generic for Restoril. I have been having a lot of dizziness and balance problems since I have started the yellow ones. Do you think this change in pill could do this to me. ## How long have you been taking it? Drowsiness, dizziness, and headache can be normal side effects of this medication, according to FDA reports, but we are all different and may react differently to medications. How are you doing, now? Has there been any change?

I took 6 mg lunesta on an empty stomach. When can I eat again? How many hours after taking lunesta can I eat without it interrupting the effects of the medication? ## Hello, Michelle! How are you? There shouldn't be any issue with eating and taking this medication. The FDA warns that it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, hallucinations, and sleep actions. However, you should be going to bed, shortly after taking it, and not taking it early enough to require a meal. Are you on any other medications?
