A member asked:
Is memory loss from ambien (zolpidem) permanent?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Memory loss is not an uncommonly seen "side effect" of the sedative hypnotics. I'd discuss with your prescribing physician, as you may benefit from a lower dose, or perhaps a completely different medication. Good luck.
