How does Ambien work?

Ambien was approved by FDA in the year 1992 for administration by masses. It is a hypnotic class of medicine, which works by activating the neurotransmitters Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and binding to the GABA receptors in a way that is similar to medications like Xanax and Valium (which belong to benzodiazepines class of medicines). The enhanced GABA activity triggered by Ambien hinders the nerve cells activity that is associated with insomnia. In a nutshell, it slows down the activities in the brain. This drug is extremely useful in initiating sleep in a person, usually making a person doze off within 20 minutes or so. However, if you want to have a continued sound sleep, you can take the extended-release form of Ambien, instead of its controlled-release pills.
