Generic Ambien

Are the orange generic Ambien pills from India safe? ## I've done fine on them. Name is ZORA, is that what you have? ## LocoEddie your spamming is not permitted. Please refrain. As to whether or not they are safe, there is no way to know for sure since foreign drugs are not regulated like those in the U.S. Ordering them from a foreign country when they are not approved for sale here is illegal and you run the risk of them being seized by customs and having yourself fined. Especially if you do not have a prescription. ## I have just got a script for zora and was worried it would not be the same as my normal pills but they work fine

Round Table Blank on one side / other 2ide containts ysp173 Different pill from any genertic I've ever seen before. Is this correct genetic mediciine? ## Yes, this tablet contains 10mgs of Zolpidem, a generic for Ambien. The way a pill looks has nothing to do with what it is and whether or not it is an authentic medication.

Hi, Read Ambien CR is NOT available in >genericANY< ambien out of the country? (I have the prescription) ## No, at this time Ambien CR, in the U.S. is still under proprietary patent and is not available for generic production. I am not aware of what is available in other countries. Have you considered talking to your doctor about trying the regular Ambien that is not time released? It is available as the generic Zolpidem.

is Zotic a reliable manufacturer of Ambien 19 mgs? ## Hello, Jimmy! How are you? I'm sorry, but that is a manufactured for a generic from India, since they are not approved by the U.S. FDA, I have no information on them. That is one of the hazards of ordering in such a manner. Does anyone know more about this Ambien?

This is an orange pill I got when I refilled my prescription for generic Ambien. I tried it before. I read the information from other people on this website. I always cut them in half and take half at a time. These are really, really bitter and foul tasting but they do work. Luckily the recommended dose was good enough. ## Thanks for comments on the orange generic ambien -- that was info I was looking for.

As of Dec 2010, both Ambien & Ambien CR 6.25 mg are available in USA as generic. For some reason the FDA didn't approve the 12.5 mg CR version. The pharmacy I use in India won't sell any versions of any hypnotic. They must be afraid people will abuse them. ## Well, even in the U.S. there are concerns about abuse and addiction, so it is only approved for the short-term treatment of insomnia and is usually only prescribed to be taken, as needed, for 4 to 6 weeks, at most. It has also been known to cause some problematic side effects, such as: hallucinations, memory loss, sleep eating and impairment of judgment. Learn more: Are there any questions or comments?

Dark pink in colour. Oblong shape. No markings apart from an indentation line one one side of the tablet. 10 mg Zolpidem tartate tablets is the name stated on packaging. Shipped from India. Lic.No. 1752-OSP ## Without any markings, it is impossible to verify what it is. Since it is from outside the U.S. it can sometimes be hard even if it does have markings on it. The only real option you have would be to pay to have it lab tested. Did you order these online?

Zolpidem 10 mg what color is the pill green MZ 2 ## Hello, Alexis! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals, they list it as being purple and containing 10mgs of Zolpidem, so yes, it's a generic for Ambien. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, hallucinations and sleep actions. Is there anything else I can help with? ## How do you find a pharmacy that still carries Zolpidem from Mylan? My pharmacy switched to Teva and now the pill doesn't work for me. Walmart, walgreens, CVS are all from Teva. ## You could try Jewel Osco but if all the big drugstores have switched, I'd say you're SOOL. Mine are Teva, work fine for me. Insurance usually doesn't pay for anything but stuff from the major drugstores like ...

I recently received small, slightly off-white football shaped (like brand-name Xanax), unmarked, yet scored on one side...Allegedly generic Ambien...Anyone know what it really is, or has the same product and knows for sure what it is? ## Was this ordered from a foreign pharmacy/source? If there are no markings, it is going to be difficult to determine exactly what this contains. All legal U.S. manufactured pills have to have unique imprints to enable their identification, but few other countries have such a law in place. It may be Ambien, or any number of other medications, including over the counter products. Is anyone familiar with this tablet? ## Since posting your question have you found out if this was generic ambien? I have recieved the same thing and am concerned as it looks noth...

My pharmacy gives me a different generic ambien almost every month. Can I ask for non-generic since I am paying without insurance? All of them work slightly different. Some hardly work at all. ## Hello, Jerry! How are you? Yes, you can do that. You can also ask your doctor to write the prescription as 'brand medically necessary' or whatever the equivalent is in your state. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, funny taste in mouth, sleep actions, hallucinations and next day hangover-like effects. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I wouldn't mind a generic ambein if i knew one that worked consistently. I read different opinions on all the generics. So would name brand be inconsistent also? I can n...

For many years Qualitest has furnished an excellent generic version of Ambien 10 mg. I have tried various other manufacturers ---Teva, Mylan and they do not work for me. I called Qualitest (now part of Endo and Par Pharma) --- customer service on 2/24/16 and they indicated that they are getting allot of inquiries and stopped producing it in Oct 2015, due to "inability to get certain ingredients." I find this bizarre. It was a great seller. My pharmacy also indicated that there is a posting that several other generic companies are also not shipping this product other than the 2 above. ## Hello, Chuck! How are you? Yes, that is correct, most manufactures have a shortage listed with no known date of availability. Shortages, such as this that say they can't get the relevant ingr...

I'm trying to find a generic for ambien that works - Northstar does not work for me. ## The only thing I can really suggest is to ask your pharmacy, they should be able to order it in for you, though it may cost more and you would likely have to pay any price difference. Learn more Ambien details here. Have you found them, yet?

I've had insomnia for 13 years. Very sleep depraved and extreme fatigue/depression. I sometimes take 5mg of generic ambien BUT I experience HORRID NIGHTMARES! Very realistic and life threatening situations of myself and/or one of my pets! It is a terrible feeling but I do get 6+hours of sleep. Wish there was something without the side effect of nightmares (always occurring in the early morning hours). ## Hello, Cameo! How are you? What else have you tried for your insomnia? After having similar problems with most such medications, including daytime hangover like effects, I actually finally found a solution by taking Benadryl with a Tylenol tablet at night, though there are generic/store brands available, plus combination products that contain both. You'd need to get your doctor...

I've been taking ambien generics; the white and the peach oval. They have no effects on me. Until about two months ago cvs was carrying Teva MZ2. It was the only one that worked for me like a charm. My doctor gave ambien c.r they don't work at all the Teva purple one southeast the ambien c.r..I asked why cvs stopped carrying those they said it s the pharmaceutical stop sending to cvs. I was frustrated because I'm tired of changing medicine. I'm like here we go back to the medication that doesn't work for me and it's ripping the health insurance off. I wish they would survey which ambien works for each individual who takes them and why. They arent working for them? And my doctor writes the name brand ambein cvs never carries it ever. I have no side effect with the...

Stay far away from auralife 20mg or adderall generic... CVS f***ed me - kiss this month goodbye. ## Hi was just wondering new to the area and in need of a good doctor that won't have a problem with writing refills for scripts such as clonezapam, ambien, adderall 30mg, and 15mg oxy must be in the area of either FarmVille Lynchburg Amelia Richmond or chesterfield Virginia ## Email {edited for privacy}.

Is Ambien CR (for long term usage) the same as the generic Ambien for short term use? What is the difference, what's in it? I take the teva 74 but have been on it for some years. I tried the CR at one point but I felt was a lesser dosage and it did not work for me at all. ## Hello, Allie! How are you? I'll be happy to clear this up for you. They both contain the same active ingredient, Zolpidem, but in the CR, it is time released, so it is supposed to help someone fall asleep and stay asleep. The possible side effects, as listed by the FDA, are the same, as well and may include nausea, dizziness, sleep actions, memory loss and anxiety. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I have been using Ambien for the past 10 years....I'm a shift worker and since age 40 my regular s...
