You are having dental extractions and was prescribed valuim 10mg for anxiety is that a good medicine for that?
Yes but do not drive to or from the appointment. Okay thanks but how long should i wait before my appiontmen to take the Valium
How much Valium should you take before going to the dentist?
You should take no more than what is recommended by the dentist who prescribed the Valium. Under no circumstances should you take the drug without it being prescribed, and always let your dentist know how much you took and when. Also, make sure someone else drives you to and from your dental appointment.
What should you do the night before your dental appointment?
I would say, brush your teeth. But that should occur after every meal.
If you have 10mg Valium for a dental appointment but you need 15mg can you add 1mg Ativan and get the same basic effect?
Most benzodiazepine equivalency charts show 10mg Valium = 1mg Ativan so it should work, HOWEVER, be cautious when subsitituting or combining benzos as effects are VERY relative to each person. Paradoxical reactions can occur in one benzo and not another. For example, My cousin can't take Valium- it makes her hyper and irritable, but 0.5mg Ativan knocks her out.
Should I be worried about my first ever dental appointment at 23?
First dental appointment at 23 is somewhat on the late side of the spectrum in NA, but not unheard of. Just find a good dentist. If you have no pain or discomfort and have been brushing and flossing, chances are all you need is a teeth cleaning, or may a couple of small cavities at worst. Also have your wisdom teeth assess if get them removed before age 25 if necessary.
How long is the shelf life of Valium before it expires?
Valium has a shelf life of about six months before it expires. You should never take an expired medication or one that is not prescribed specifically for your current illness.
What should I know before having dental work done at a dental school in Texas?

A person should only take Zoloft and Valium together if the doctor prescribed the medicine to be taken together. Always speak with your doctor before mixing any medicines.
Can you smoke before dental treatment?
There should be no medical contra-indication for a single cigarette before a dental treatment. But take in consideration that you will then open your mouth to another person that will get all the bad smell in his or her face.
What is the process for making a complaint to the GDC regarding a problem with a dental surgeon?
The GDC (General Dentist Council) exists in UK to protect dental patients. One should first talk to the dental surgeon involved before complaining to the General Dental Council though. They should try to sort out the problem before one complains to the GDC. If one must complain to the GDC, they should contact their helpline at 08456 120 540.
