Ambien or Zolpidem Tapering strategies. Talk to your provider. Most CAN come off this medication
Ambien or Zolpidem can be difficult to stop, especially if taken for years. Tapering CAN be accomplished for many patients, but providers often need to utilize strategies including non-controlled medications that can minimize withdrawal. Compounding pharmacies can also be utilized to make very small decreases. And if a patient has an underlying anxiety, mood or primary insomnia disorder, that will likely have to be adequately treated via other modalities.
