Does Ambien cause anxiety or just the anti-depressants?
Hello.
The most common side effects of zolpidem are drowsiness, dizziness, and a "drugged" feeling, which probably reflect the action of the drug. Other side effects include confusion, insomnia, euphoria, ataxia (balance problems), and visual changes.
So your anxiety seems to be mainly due to the use of antidepressants.
