Ambien (zolpidem) is a brand-name oral tablet that is utilized for the treatment of sleep disorders in adults. As with other drugs, Ambien can cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, and unusual sleep behaviors.
Ambien may produce some side effects, which are more likely to occur than others. The side effects can be temporary, persisting for a few days to weeks. But if the side effects persist longer than that, trouble you, or become severe, discuss them with your doctor or pharmacist.
