If the patient has been on it for a while, they’ll at the very least need to taper off of it to prevent seizures iirc, but honestly even then I see most doctors preferring benzos over ambien which is wild because benzos are nasty shit (if you need 'em you need 'em, but you do not want to need them)!

Ambien works almost exactly like benzos, it’s no less nasty. Benzos at least tend to be more predictable than Ambien

That’s what I’m saying! Being on par or even worse than benzos is something!
