Taking two different sedative medications like alcohol and Valium can cause dangerous depression of the nervous system. Symptoms include slowed breathing and heart beat. You also get slowed mental ability and reflexes. If enough drugs are taken, this will lead to coma and death.
best case scenario: you fall asleep while watching t.v. at home.
worst case scenario: you drink 2 bottles of vodka and take 1000 valium and you have a good chance of dying from suffocating on your vomit while passed out.
most likely scenario: you black out at a party and make a fool out of yourself.
Depends on the person and the dosage and the persons tolerance .. The ridiculous previous response of " it will kill them" is complete nonsense. I have so far had 1 Litre of red wine in a period of 2 hours and took 2x5mg of Valium 30mins ago yet I am still alive and kicking.
Mixing any drugs with any alcohol is a medical no-no. Valium with alcohol turns the patient into a monster!
It enhances the effects of the alcohol.

Valium has a relatively long half life - so it will last a few days to help prevent the dt's.
Potentially, excessive sedation or oversedation may occur. With large quantities of alcohol, taken with benzodiazepine medications (such as Valium), loss of consciousness, coma and even death could occur. In sum, alcohol in combination with benzodiazepine medications can be quite dangerous.

Yes, Valium is a controlled substance. It is used for anxiety, panic attacks, and often as a muscle relaxant, as it does include one. Valium is a disassociation drug, in that, it does effect your memory, absolutely not to be used with alcohol. Valium can be ordered by the doctor via phone,FAX, email. It does not have to be in written form only like oxycodone and other class 2 narcotics.
ANSWER:No, Valium (diazepam) does not come in doses nearly that hight. Most countries, including The US, Canada, and most of Europe have 2, 5, and 10 mg tablets of Valium. Normally the maximum dose of Valium is 40 mg/day. 100 mg of Valium is a huge dose, something a doctor would never prescribe with a possible exception of use in hospital, normally for alcohol, benzodiazepine, or barbiturate detox.
Not enough. I'd suggest you see an addiction psychiatrist. You will need to stop drinking completely. If I was your doctor, I'd prescribe you 10mg Valium every 6 hours and follow you up daily with a personal phone call. We would gradually reduce the Valium by 1mg/day over the next 40 days. At which time you'd be free of alcohol AND Valium. Good luck!
Valium is a drug that is prescribed for anxiety. Valium can make a person feel sleepy or not alert and should not be taken with alcohol.
