A member asked:
I have taken sudafed for a sinus infection and just took my dose of ambien to help me sleep. does pseudoephedrine cancel the effects of ambien?

Possibly: It's difficult to predict which medication will exert more effect. Pseudoephedrine is a stimulant but Ambient, as a sleeping medication, may override it( which I think it will).
