Research is about what's inside 2 standard deviations of norm, not about including what happens to everybody. It's important in life to listen to your own body. For drugs there can be effects that happen to only 1-2 people, or 1-2%. They aren't saying it must be something else at this time. I contacted the manufacturer and they have a pharmacist assigned who will be looking at the research and reports that have come in, and will get back to me. I'm hoping that for the users where it resolved just haven't posted about it.

Unfortunately none of them report it resolving. There are tons of posts on the internet from people who've experienced the same thing, including younger adults. It as sudden onset, mild at first and getting worse as she continued, and it's with memory with no evidence of anything else being effected.

I can tell you when I noticed, and it matches. It's distinctive and unique for her and she can tell you went it started and track it to it. The table below lists several commonly prescribed sleep aids along with the required minimum wait times for each.Thanks for your comments! It's definitely from the Ambien. The minimum required wait time after the last dose of a sleep aid is 5-times the maximum elimination half life. This wait time is based on the pharmacologic elimination half life of the drug (half life is the time it takes to clear half of the absorbed dose from the body). Pharmaceutical Considerations: Because of the potential for impairment, we require a minimum wait time between the last dose of a sleep aid and performing pilot duties.Aeromedical Decision Considerations: N/A.Daily/nightly use of sleep aids is not allowed regardless of the underlying cause or reason. Occasional or limited use of sleep aids, such as for circadian rhythm disruption in commercial air operations, is allowable for pilots. While sleep aids may be appropriate and effective for short term symptomatic relief, the primary concern should be the diagnosis, treatment, and resolution of the underlying condition before clearance for aviation duties. Examples may include primary sleep disorders (e.g., insomnia, sleep apnea) or psychological disorders (e.g., anxiety, depression). Medical conditions that chronically interfere with sleep are disqualifying regardless of whether a sleep aid is used or not. (As examples, see the Food and Drug Administration drug safety communications on zolpidem and eszopiclone.) Medical History: Use of sleep aids is a potential risk to aviation safety due to effects of the sleep aid itself or the underlying reason/condition for using the sleep aid.Īll the currently available sleep aids, both prescription and over the counter, can cause impairment of mental processes and reaction times, even when the individual feels fully awake.Third-Class Airman Medical Certificate: 67.313(c).Second-Class Airman Medical Certificate: 67.213(c).First-Class Airman Medical Certificate: 67.113(c).* NOTE: The different formulations of zolpidem have different half-lives, thus different wait times.
