Zolpidem

Legal status: Not confirmed — the Criminal Code of the Republic of Tajikistan (1998, as amended to 2020) is the governing drug law; the specific scheduling/penalty for zolpidem in Tajikistan is not confirmed here. Verify against the current schedule.
Consequences if caught: This specific substance was not individually verified against Tajikistan's drug schedule; the Criminal Code of the Republic of Tajikistan (1998, as amended to 2020) is the governing law. Do NOT assume it is permitted; verify before travel. In Tajikistan, drugs fall under the Criminal Code of the Republic of Tajikistan (1998, as amended to 2020). Illegal trafficking and related narcotics offences are the serious tier; the ceiling for drug offences is imprisonment. The maximum penalty for drug offences is imprisonment; the separate provisions for the gravest non-drug crimes do not extend to drug offences. The precise current-code possession and trafficking terms should be confirmed against the current schedule.
If prescribed / medical: If a controlled medicine, carry the prescription and confirm with your embassy (see documentation).

(Historical note: older texts of the Code listed narcotics trafficking among capital offences; the current consolidated Code does not — it restricts the death penalty to a narrow set of grave non-drug crimes, and a moratorium has been in force since 2004.) Cannabis is controlled under the same Code, with no legal recreational or medical regime.
