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

Plan the next step before you leave detox: outpatient therapy, a sleep specialist, or a residential program if use was heavy or combined with other drugs.
