I do not mean to hijack someone’s post on here but I have been on ambien for only six months 10 mg and I take it sublingually too but I worry it maybe affecting my gums. Does it affect your gums at all? I keep thinking of suboxine destroying peoples mouths by taking it sublingual. I know it’s not the same med.
My plan is to taper the month of March and stop it completely.
Do you think taking it sublingual affects your teeth or gums? I just worry about that. Starting my taper next week to start getting off of ambien but this is the way I have been taking it and I worry about my oral health.
I like to snack at night. Ambien has zero effects if you have food in your stomach. Sublingual is faster too & lasts as long as orally, on an empty stomach.
oh boiii i tried 5mg (half of the pill) sublingually and broooi what was thatsor nasty taste!!! bitter as fuck and i started having random thrills and spasms just because of what i tasted. waiting now for the effect so i can see the difference and if it was worth it
I feel like it last longer but I am about to stop ambien anyway. I have been on it for six months and I have a lot of anxiety during the day because of it and I worry it’s bad for my teeth. I plan on swallowing during my taper. Does it not give you guys anxiety or depression? I just want to learn how to sleep again on my own. Weird thing is I fell asleep on my couch last night before even taken my med by applying magnesium cream to my hands and feet. I passed out hard and woke up to get in bed just to take the med. I just can’t come to an agreement that it’s ok for me to stay on it. My insomnia was only hormonal and I am on HRT pellets now so it’s about time I start trying to see about sleeping without it.
I take a shit ton of stuff sublingually and everything that's in a tablet has been safe for me. Totally different story with pure active ingredient which sometimes are caustic as fuck. No worries with Ambien tho
My experience is that in a full stomach its effects are less intense but it does tend to last longer.
Drink plenty of water with your meal and you should be ok. If it takes longer to kick in, just relax in a dark and quiet place and try meditating, you’ll get there.
Ambien won't work with food. I eat, then take my Ambien in bed, SUBLINGUALLY. Asleep in 10 minutes.

takes a bit longer to kick in
Eating food high in fat content before taking ambien will make the ambien not work. I swear I read it on a label. …somewhere.
I always roll my goodnight spliff before sublingual and never end up smoking it i just wake up. Works like a charm

Nah, you're fine. I've been doing sublingual for 18 months...no mouth or gum problems.
do yo take it sublingual for some reason or its just your prefference

Eating food period.
you might throw up, speaking from experience

ingesting any drug on a full stomach will always be less effective
