Question: Is Ambien a narcotic!? The pharmacy put a C with the number similar to Codeine!.!?
Answers:
No, Ambien and Ambien CR are not classified as narcotics!. Narcotics are pain relievers of an opiate nature!. However, by virtue of their mechanism of action on the GABA system in the central nervous system, they are similar to drugs in the benzodiazepine family, such as Xanax, Valium and Klonopin!. Ambien is not indicated for long term use, as it can theoritically cause habituation!. Use it only on an as-needed basis and do not mix it with alcohol or other sedatives!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Well, the drug is actually Ambien CR!. Is that maybe what you're seeing on the label--the CR!?
Ambien is a sedative (a hypnotic)!. It is indicated for short-term treament!. I would guess it is in a controlled class of drugs like Codeine!.
