I am taking zolpidem daily and my depression is getting total worse. Do you think they are correlated. Please help!

Question

Zolpidem is a medication that helps with initiating sleep with people who have trouble falling asleep. In other words, it is a sleep aid, in medical terminology that would be a non-benzodiazepine sedative. You would need to be on anti-depressant mood elevators to have your problem with depression fixed. I certainly recommend that you consult a psychiatrist physically or online here. Look forward to hearing from you. If you need help with booking an appointment online with me on this website either text, an appointment for a confidential and private consultation you may do so by contacting the help desk of Lybrate.
