How to Get Ambien Free Samples

Free samples are available for both Ambien and AmbienCR. Please note that some healthcare insurance providers may only cover the prescription for regular Ambien due to the fact that AmbienCR is more expensive.

  • Patients who are prescribed Ambien CR may be able to find printable coupons on the official drug website from time to time. For example, the manufacturer has offered a free 4-night supply of the drug via online coupon. If coupons are available, they may be printed and taken to a patient's doctor for the free samples. Registration may be required to access coupons on the Ambien CR site.
  • Free Ambien samples may also be available through a local pharmacy for those patients who already have a prescription for the medication. Patients interested in free samples can ask their pharmacist when they go to fill their prescription.
  • Additional savings for Ambien and AmbienCR may also be available in the form of Ambien coupons or a Patient Assistant Program offered by Sanofi-Aventis.
