10-20mg depending on your weight. If you are taking it as prescribed, follow your Doctor's orders...If you are trying to get high, then take 20-40mg, drink a few Jack and Cokes, and call me in 14 hours.

Only take the amount your doctor prescribes you. He/she is the only one who can determine that.

Is there 100 mg Valium?

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.

No. the half life of Valium is 3-5 days at most.


Will 20 mg of Valium hurt you?

That's well under the lethal dose. However, it's a lot of valium. If you dose that high and haven't developed a significant tolerance to diazepam, expect to not be doing a lot that day except dozing. Note that this isn't a recommendation to dose yourself. You'd be wise to check this out with your doctor.


How long does Valium stay in your system after just 1 dose of 2mg Valium?

If you are getting a urine test, it could be there as long as 21 days. This depends on the type of test they do. The least i have seen Valium show up in a 6 panel tip cup test was 7 days after a single dose of 5 mg. Valium (Diazapam) does not come in 2 mg doses.

Is Ativan a form of Valium?

Ativan is in the same family as Valium. They are both Benzodiazepines. Ativan is about 10 times stronger in terms of DOSE than Valium. They are two different chemicals but have similar effects. Some make you sleepier, and some work more at anxiety. I think Ativan is better than Valium at reducing anxiety but Valium makes you sleepier. But they are both similar so you probably won't notice the difference.

How long after taking Valium do you have to wait to drive?

It is always recommended that until you have been taking this type of drug for several weeks, (on a daily basis) that you DO NOT DRIVE. Benzo's have what is called a long "half life". Half life is how much of the active ingredient is in your CNS after you take the very first dose. Drug screens have detected a single dose of a benzo Valium a MONTH after it was ingested. This type of drug is not like alcohol, where it get 'out of your system an ounce per hour. Take this advice: Wait until you are at your home or hotel until you take the prescribed dose.
