I had glass of wine then took ambien (zolpidem) with dinner then i was on the couch popped up and asked why i was there what happened?

Drug-drug : Interaction, with additive adverse effects. Ambien (zolpidem) is complex and can promote sleep walking, daily drowsiness rebound after awakening in the am, and can result in confusion in some. The alcohol may accentuate the side effects, and that is why your prescription bottle advises avoiding alcohol with ambien (zolpidem).

Ambien: I agree with Dr. Machanic. It is very important not to misuse prescribed medications. Recommend that you not drink alcohol if you are using Ambien. Additionally, there are many cases documented in which individuals sleep walked or were involved in complex purposeful behaviors while on ambien.
