Ambien
Insomnia pill brand
Ambien is a brand name for zolpidem, a sedative prescribed for insomnia.
It works quickly to induce sleep but has become notorious for causing strange behavior—sleepwalking, sleep-eating, even sleep-driving—that users don't remember: I texted my ex last night on Ambien and have no memory of it.
The drug's reputation for causing bizarre nocturnal episodes has made it a cultural reference point for doing regrettable things while not fully conscious.
