Is methocarbamol a schedule II drug?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, methocarbamol is not scheduled by the DEA in any category. Metaxolone (Skelaxin) isn't either. Carisoprodol (Soma) is the only similar agent that is currently scheduled (Sched IV).

What are some commonly prescribed muscle relaxers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You may or may not need a muscle relaxer. It depends on what your doctor says is wrong with your back. If you have a slipped disc or something else wrong with the spine, muscle relaxers aren't going to help you. See a doctor to determine which medication you need to be taking.

If your out of Xanax can you take Valium?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It is certainly not recommended to change medications without consulting a doctor.

However, Xanax and Valium have Cross-tolerance. So if there is not an alternative then substituting Valium for Xanax is medically acceptable. And because Xanax can not be stopped "cold turkey" drug substitution is important.

Is Valium addictive?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Valium can be psychologically addictive instantly if you've found its relieved your issues and can't shake the desire for more relieving... if you take it daily for up to a month or more than you can risk becoming dependant which i stress not to do... being previously addicted to herion, Valium, aphetamines, and cocain in the past i will tell you Valium was by far the hardest drug ive ever had to come off... the withdrawal is unbearable (potentially dangerous) and lasts so long its easy to loose the will to live... if you are already dependent do not be ambitious to come off them instantly or even ween yourself off too quick... you can do it as slow as possible and the suffering can be minimal and can be done therepeutically

Is lortab a muscle relaxer?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, it's a pain pill. To explain: Lortab is a combination of hydrocodone and Tylenol, which helps to relieve pain. Muscle relaxers are usually more like Advil but stronger. Lortabs will help with muscle pain but not as well as muscle relaxers. Muscle relaxers will only help with pain relating to muscles or inflammation.

Can you drink when taking diazepam?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Alcohol will increase the central nervous system depressant effects of diazepam. You will become overly sedated. A small amount of diazepam and alcohol probably wont kill you, let's say 1 glass of beer and 5 mg of diazepam. But drinking alcohol and diazepam is not a wise thing to do and can be dangerous.

Is it ok to snort Valium?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Xanax, otherwise known by its chemical name Alprazolam has an oral bio-availability of 80-90%. That means that 80-90% of the drug is absorbed into your system when you swallow the pill.

You CANNOT insuffulate (snort) Xanax (Alprazolam); this drug is not water soluble meaning your nasal passage will not be able to extract the drug and enter it into your system, your only hope is that the nasal drip reaches your stomach which is redundant as taking them orally goes through the stomach anyways.

I would say the insuffulated bio-availability of Xanax is around 1-5% (this is a crude estimate). The oral bio-availability of 80-90% is REMARKABLY high (IV injection leads to 99-100%).

Xanax also kicks in very quickly, one of the fastest onsets of any drugs I've ever taken, and snorting it relies on it going through the stomach as it won't be picked up nasally so your actually looking at waiting more time when snorting it. Not only that you won't feel a thing (unless you are having a psycho-somatic placebo reaction).

Many people here say, "No, don't do anything unless the doctor tells you to" and "Never take it other than directed". I am not one of these people.

I am here to tell you, no you can't because it doesn't work, it won't get you buzzed, and the pills have a high bio-availability and work quickly anyways.

Thank you!

Can you take soma and lyrica together?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

yes you can take both drugs at the ame time. The lyrica will potentiate the carisoprodol and leave you feeling great. I would take about 700mg of soma and about 400+mgs of lyrica to lift u to new levels of euphoria.
