Q: can i get a refill on my ambien while on vacation?

: Ambien or zolpidem is a controlled substance and if traveling out of state your current prescriber will need to be licensed in the respective state or you will need to get a refill from a local doc. Many patients try to time a refill before they leave and plan accordingly.

Cannot obtain Ambien or any controlled substance at this site. Contact your regular doctor and have this handled prior to your vacation.
