[skoda_lasky]

i took 600 mg and didn't even sleep.  i cooked and shoplifted and went to jail.  i am a 99 pound female.  what is  happening to me?

[FLaddict]

Not sure.. but i would NOT take it again..

Ummmm.... is 600mg considered a lot?  I've heard that larger dosages can cause sleepwalking and amnesia.  Is this what happened to you?

[Lotsatrout]

Ummmm....  I don't understand the relevance of your weight....  Have you lost weight or something?

[IBKleen]

WOW..busy night huh?
You've got some problems there lady. Hope you come back in and post again. This is a great site for help.

I've never heard of Ambien making a person lose weight or act crazy. isn't that suppose to relax u??

[Beargizmo]

600mg?? are you sure?  Normal dosage is 10mg..maybe 20.   People have been known to do strange things on ambien and had no recollection of it, even on the normal dosage.

I have NEVER heard of anyone taking 600mg. That's 60 regular Ambien pills. Holy cow.

[Lotsatrout]

Yeah... my thought exactly.  If a certain percentage of people are prone to sleepwalking and having amnesia at the regular dosage than what the heck can you expect at 600mg?  Maybe skoda typed in the wrong information?  Maybe it was 60mg's???

I take ambien each evening, the highest dosage, Ambien CR 12.5 mg.. never heard of a higher dosage......
I have heard people doing things they dont remember on ambien like eating in the middle of the night...
Good Luck to you and Be Careful and Safe!

WE used to eat abien and trip out...possibly thats what happened to you. If u take it and fight the sleep it is a psycodelic. dont take it again, but if u do u have to try and sleep...it wont just magically maek u sleep, it will jsut help you.

If you took 600mgs of ambien you would have died.  I think you meant to say 60mgs.  They only come in 5mg, 10mg and Ambien CR 12.5mgs.  So, I assume you meant 60mgs.  That is overdosing and YES crazy things will happen to you.  My mom takes 10mgs at night and sometimes she gets up and cooks something in the middle of the night and has NO idea the next morning of what she did.  When taken properly "usually" it works quite well for sleep.  The key is take the pill and immediately go to sleep.  It only takes like 5 minutes to start working.
