    One question is, if you do not know what it is, why are you in possession of that pill?

    A good resource is the PDR - Physician's Desk Reference - you can buy the paperback at Wal-Mart or one of the bookstores like Barnes and Noble. Or you can go to their website and research this:

    It's Zolpidem Tartrate, 10mg - (commonly sold under brand name Ambien), a sedative-hypnotic used for the short-term treatment of insomnia (difficulty falling or staying asleep).
