Would 85 mg of Ativan be fatal?

Yes, it would cause respiratory depression, that is unless you weigh 1000 pounds and have a bowl of benzodiazepines for breakfast each morning. 2 mg of ativan makes me sedated and I have a tolerance to the stuff, so 50 times that dose... yeah you'd just stop breathing.

Is Xanax and Buspar the same?

No. There is a huge difference in the Buspar vs Xanax drug classes. While Xanax is one of the benzodiazepines, Buspar has its drug class and is not related to any other anxiolytic. Another difference in the Buspar vs Xanax mechanism of action is that Buspar works not with GABA receptors but triggers serotonin receptors. In terms of effectiveness, both medicines are equally effective in treating anxiety. Although the onset of effects of Buspar vs Xanax drugs is rapid, Xanax has a bigger potential for inducing dependency and side effects. Always consult with the doctor before switching the medication. Only a medical doctor has the right to prescribe, review, or substitute the medication during treatment.

Can you take alprazolam with Adderall xr?

I would have to say that I have taken them together before and I experienced very odd side affects. Paranoia, bad Jitters, and increased heart rate.

I am 100% sure that those 2 combined FOR ME, do NOT mix well. I have taken both separately and years apart and both have worked well for separately.

So please make sure you consult a Doctor first, but even then they may still not be for sure if you will have side affects as I did. I mean a Doctor wrote those scripts for me at the same time. I had to decide between ADD and depression (not that there are not other drug alternatives), but I went with ADD and my depression slipped away.

Hope this helps.

What is the herbal equivalent to Ativan?

There are two ways to interpret this question. One is, what is the herbal chemical equivalent, and one, more general, what herbs can help, relax, tranqulize like Valium.

First off a minor tranquilizer relaxes by relaxing the muscles. In other words it helps ease up tense muscles. That being said, there are different categories of herbals that can relax. There are calmatives. These botanical are calming hence the name. There are nervines. These strengthen the nerves. Another category is antispasmodic. While these arn't exactly relaxing herbs they help calm cramping. In this way they help with stomach distress and thereby they are helpful in dealing with physical stress. Finally there are relaxants. Medicinal plants that are most helpful in making people feel relaxed. Scullcap, Wood Betony, Passionflower and Valarian are excellent relaxing herbs for most people.

Some herbs, including chamomile, sage, lemon balm, and holy basil, are also relaxing, but have markedly milder or weaker effects than valium, and accordingly, are much safer.

Is tizanidine a benzodiazepine?

No. Tizanidine also known as zanaflex is a muscle relaxant. Benzodiazepines are Valium, Xanax or Ativan. Muscle relaxers would not show up on a drug test. If you hadn't intentionally taken a benzo and it showed up on a drug screening I would check with your doctor. Criminals have been known to secretly add benzos to unsuspecting young women's drinks...

Will urine analysis tell between Valium and Klonopin?

How do you get a DR. to perscribe Xanax?

There's nothing you can say; doctor's have a sixth sense about addicts. Xanax is a highly addictive substance. If you are addicted, see an addiction psychiatrist. He/she will have ways of painlessly detoxing you and treating the real problem. For example, I was a doctor-shopping, Xanax lovin', self medicator for years before I was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. It turns out that the drug Klonopin, not Xanax, was a much better choice for my anxiety.

Can you fail a pre employment urine test if you have a prescription for Xanax and are taking it?

While Xanax can be tested for, it generally is not part of the standard lab testing package unless your PO is specifically concerned about that drug in particular or if the terms of your parole dictate that you should not be taking it. Because they are prescribed to such a large number of people for stress and anxiety to be taken for extended periods of time, benzodiazepines such as Xanax, Valium, Ativan, etc, are generally not tested for.

Can xanax make you positive on a drug test?

No, Xanax is a benzodiazepine and methadone will show up as methadone because it is synthetic and requires its own specific test.

Can you take lamictal with Valium?

When Taking Lamictal For Bipolar Depression It Is Not Uncommon For A Person To Be Given A Small Dosage Of Prozac Or Other Antidepressents. The Dosage Of Prozac Most Always, When Given The Working Dosage Of Lamictal, Will Be Given In A Small Dosage 10 mg or 20 mg per day. I Strongly Recommend You Discuss This With Your Psychiatrist. The Reason For Giving a Small Dosage Is To Keep You From Going Manic. GOD BLESS & GOOD LUCK

Can you take Adderall with xanax?

I wouldn't recommend trying it without consulting your doctor first, it could be very dangerous indeed.

Adderall and Xanax

My doctor prescribed me adderall and xanax (well actually niravam which is the same active ingredient in an instant dissolve form) at the same time. His only concern was that prescribing a medicine to treat anxiety with one that can cause it would be counterproductive. He said there weren't any major health issues.

Another View

I'm Leum and this is a separate answer based upon my personal experiences and research. I agree that you should only take adderall and xanax with a doctor's approval, but since you state that you have the doctor's approval and he claims there are no major health issues, you needn't be concerned.

I have personally been on a combination of adderall and xanax or Valium for many many years, and it is quite effective for me. People react differently to medications and I assume that you have ADD or ADHD since you are being prescribed adderall. I too have ADHD and just adderall by itself has a calming and focusing effect on me. adderall, although an amphetamine, does not create the typical non ADHD person's response as my biochemistry and physiology is different.

Due to stress and anxiety, I also require either the xanax or Valium. The combination works very well for me, and so long as you watch for drug dependency problems whereby you begin increasing the dosages at a steady pace, you'll be okay. Just taper off when you want to stop taking the medications as both can be psychologically addicting, and the xanax or Valium can cause physical addiction whereby you can suffer dangerous and even life threatening withdrawal. But again, tapering off by slowly reducing the dosage over a period of time is not difficult.

One final comment is that when you initiate therapy, don't be overly concerned about increasing dosage until you reach the point where you find relief. Then once you have found your own proper dosage, you should not require to increase from there, else you may be developing addictive behaviors.

How long does 30 mg of Valium stay in your system?

If it was a one time thing - then it will last up to a week. If you are a chronic user - it will be detectable for up to 6 weeks.

The half-life is about 48 hours, but in some people it is as long as 4 days. 90% of the does will be gone in (slightly over) 3 half-lives -- normally about a week, but maybe as long as two weeks.
