Ambien Addiction Treatment Center

Ambien is a sleep medication which is highly abused because for many patients in therapeutic dosage and especially in higher dosage (20-30 pills/day) it loses selectivity only to sleep, inducing receptors and acts like benzodiazepine. Ambien Detox and Withdrawal can be very dangerous, so seeking professional help with Ambien treatment is highly recommended. Detox from Ambien can cause seizures, delirium, anxiety, insomnia and severe flu like symptoms.
