Read other letters about this article
Once upon a time, I subscribed to Salon because I thought it's articles provided an in-depth analysis that, while I did not always agree with, I appreciated access to.
Having read this article and ensuing letters, I'm not sure what I find worse: the author who engaged in a variation of sado-masochism in the pursuit of swag or letter writers who can't read the side of a prescription bottle. Having taken Ambien for two months, I can verify that the bottle clearly states not to use alcohol and not to operate heavy machinery. There are many cases when we should question the FDA and drug makers for withholding information, but surely we aren't shocked when bad things happen when we don't follow prescription directions?
Perhaps it's just easier to feign indignation than be responsible.
