My husband takes Ambien and if taken as directed it's affects are normally worn off in a couple of hours. I think the drug was specifically made to induce sleep, not to keep you unconscious until morning.

They guy has probably picked up the "ambien" story on some recent TV magazine series touting the side effects of ambien, which IMHO and our physicians is a pretty rare side effect. Wonder how long he's been taking Ambien and why all of a sudden it's creating a convenient problem for him.

again , it wouldn't be very hard at all to check his story. find the doctor , find the record of the perscription being written ,purchased etc..Only problem is they probably tampered with any evidence already and paid off anyone who saw that POS in the bar that night .

Just A BS story to put his butt out of the fire. Clinton, Kennedy. Cut from the same cloth.

Ambien does wear off, especially if the body has built up some tolerance of the medication. I recently went off Ambien and started on Lunesta. Lunesta doesn't make you feel weird or have amnesia like Ambien, and keeps me sleeping all night. Only drawback is the cost.

Right. Patrick or his lawyers saw the samw TV special I saw on Ambien and its weird side effects.

One woman got up at 3 a.m., went to the kitchen, and cooked bacon and eggs. Her husband woke her up; she said, "I don't even LIKE bacon and eggs."

Then there were other incidents, of sleepwalking outside the home and far away, etc.

Watch--this will soon appear as a defense for murder or manslaughter. Ambien-induced sleep-killing.

Oh--and the other weird effect was super-sex with the Ambien-taking partner, who did things and said things during sex that they had never ever done before. The husband of this woman was liking it! And looking forward to their next "Ambien Date."
