In reply to Ambien or Xanax?, posted by Panshair on November 2, 2005, at 9:33:48
Ambien is less addicting in the sense of Xanax since alprazolam brings relief, antianxiety effect.
Ambien has a effect only on mostly sleep. Tolerance can be a concern, but compared to Xanax, it can be better.
I've heard cases where people wake up on Xanax after it wears off. Not so much with ambien. My pdoc told me that and didnt want to go that way.
Ambien is not the best for relieving anxiety, but is better maybe in the long term. Xanax is better for anxiety, but some people take it just to feel sedated.
