What to know about Ambien and sleeping pills
Sleeping pill dependence often develops slowly: a nightly pill becomes two, or sleep feels impossible without it. Mixing sleeping pills with alcohol or opioids is especially dangerous because together they can slow breathing.
Treatment usually pairs a gradual taper with cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, which helps restore natural sleep. See our sleeping pill withdrawal guide.
After detox
Rebound insomnia can last after detox. Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, good sleep habits and treatment for anxiety or depression help keep you off sleeping pills for good.

Using your insurance
Before you call a program, have your insurance card ready and ask three things: is the program in network, does the level of care need prior authorization, and what will you owe after the deductible. Plans regulated by federal parity law cannot set stricter limits on addiction care than on comparable medical care. Our insurance guides walk through major carriers.

Is sleeping pill withdrawal dangerous?
After long-term or high-dose use it can be. Rebound insomnia and anxiety are common, and seizures can rarely occur. A supervised taper lowers the risk.
