Ambien is not a benzo. It's in the Hypnotic class of meds.

Correct, however about not wanting to use a benzo for sleep.

To OP, do you have someone, who can be there, to monitor IF you are going to have a side effect?

Had this script since '10(?). Make sure, you take it, while in your bed, and settled for the night. Worst I've done was typed an email, nothing terrible, and forgotten. I wasn't quite ready for bed, thought oh, I've got a couple minutes...nope...when it sets in, that's it...
