Hello Everyone! Happy beginning of a new week!
After I have been browsing some threads on here, I have noticed quit the plethora of different names/ brands for the prescribed hypnotic/sleep drug zolpidem.
Prior, I have also taken ambien/zolpidem (as this is what my doctor and pharmacists have ever called it). Is there a large difference in these many other brand names, etc. that I have overheard? In pharmacology we had always been taught that generic (cheaper) always = brand name (more expensive)... evening showing how they are chemically structured equivalently.
I honestly do not even remember all the different names I have found while taking time to look into this!
Thanks for any input!!
