HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Zolab is the trade name for a form of zolpidem.

Zolpidem is the active drug in ambien.

It is essentially the same drug but the manufacturer is different. This would not affect the main ingredient in the medication , zolpidem but may be associated with small , if any, changes in side effect profile.

I hope this helps
