A member asked:
I regrettably ate dinner late, ate 7:30 pm - how long do i have to wait for my stomach to empty so i can take my ambien cr?

2 hours : Normal gastric empty time is 2 hours post meal. Hi fat and GI motility issues aside, this should be fine. The food just delays absorption so drug would have less effect inducing sleep
