Find Out More About the Dangers of the Insomnia Drug - Ambien

Ambien is a prescription drug used to treat insomnia. Insomnia is characterized by an inability to sleep and/or inability to remain asleep for a reasonable period.

Insomniacs typically complain of being unable to close their eyes or "rest their mind" for more than a few minutes at a time. Both organic and nonorganic insomnia constitute a sleep disorder.

Insomnia is often caused by fear, stress, anxiety, medications, herbs, caffeine, depression or sometimes for no apparent reason. An overactive mind or physical pain may also be causes. Finding the underlying cause of insomnia is usually necessary to cure it.

Ambien is a dangerous drug, and many questions have been asked in regard to its safety. Get more information regarding an Ambien lawsuit. You many also call the Weitz & Luxenberg client relations department at 1 (800) 476-6070, or email us at clientrelations@weitzlux.com.
