I asked my VA primary physician for Ambien because of prolonged insomnia, and it arrived in today's mail...

I was totally gobsmocked to read the "Warnings" on the use of the product, particularly the first one:

1. May cause drowsiness

OMG! Imagine that! What a surprise... :icon_lol:
 
I guess every possible effect must be mentioned to avoid court room visits for example in case someone goes for a ride after taking the pill.
 
Another thing to think about is having your medication provider (government/ business/ insurance company/ etc.) take it upon themselves to change your physician's choice of prescription meds by substituting "generic" types for "brand name" ones. Not necessarily a bad thing in all cases, but providers should check for allergies and other contra-indications before doing so. A better bottom line is not an acceptable reason for changing your doctor's orders.
