I am familiar with Soma and Ambien and if I am reading your
post correctly; if you are taking those two - you should
consult the Doctor who prescribe it because there are
problems with taking both of those medications together
and here is what I have copied and pasted from the
Pharmacology Reference book in regards to the both of
them in reference to the Drug Interactions:
Quote:
Ambien (zolpidem) and Soma (carisoprodol)
MONITOR: Central nervous system- and/or respiratory-depressant effects may be additively or synergistically increased in patients taking multiple drugs that cause these effects, especially in elderly or debilitated patients.
MANAGEMENT: During concomitant use of these drugs, patients should be monitored for potentially excessive or prolonged CNS and respiratory depression. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

So as with any medications, if you are experiencing any
difficulties, possible side-effects, possible allergic reactions,
et cetera - then you need to consult with your Doctor as
soon as possible.
If you have chest pains, develop breathing problems, develop
hives, rashes, or sudden things that are unusual for you that
did not occur before including feeling suicidal or the need to
kill someone - please call 911 or get someone to call the
Paramedics or Ambulance as soon as possible and GO TO THE
HOSPITAL and TAKE ALL MEDICATIONS INCLUDING ALL HERBAL
AND VITAMINS SUPPLEMENTS THAT YOU ARE TAKING.
NOTE: I AM NOT A MEDICAL DOCTOR
