초록
Zolpidem is widely used for insomnia and is known to have relatively few side effects. There have been several reports of side effects, but only a few for withdrawal symptoms. A 41-yearold woman developed convulsions 4 days after discontinuing zolpidem. She was taking more than 10 times the standard dosage. After electroencephalography monitoring without antiseizure medications, she showed no more seizures. This case highlights the danger of zolpidem withdrawal and warns about the easy accessibility of zolpidem for individuals.
Abstract
Zolpidem is widely used for insomnia and is known to have relatively few side effects. There have been several reports of side effects, but only a few for withdrawal symptoms. A 41-yearold woman developed convulsions 4 days after discontinuing zolpidem. She was taking more than 10 times the standard dosage. After electroencephalography monitoring without antiseizure medications, she showed no more seizures. This case highlights the danger of zolpidem withdrawal and warns about the easy accessibility of zolpidem for individuals.
