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 Valium an anti seizure medication?

Asked by Wiki User

Basically, yes. Some people take Xanax but that depresses me whereas the Valium doesn't. It does make me sleepy, though, so don't take it at work or if you have to drive after taking it.

Can you drink coffee while on Valium?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes. Diazepam works like Valium. It is a "downer", and a relaxant. Coffee is an upper, due to caffeine. If you have anxiety, coffee is not going to help you. The two drugs oppose each other.

Is it ok to snort Valium?

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!

Valium (diazepam) is more for anxiety and panic; whereas klonopin (clonazepam) is for panic and also for seizures more, but they are both in a class of drugs called benzodiazepines they are somewhat similar in my opinion.

What kind of pills can you snort?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Shooting pills is pretty unsafe unless your using a micron filter and know what your doing.

Pretty much any pill that is recreational to some degree is shootable as long as it's not an extended release. Of course some require more steps than others which you should always try and look-up online before attempting.

How do you stop mdma?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I haven't verified the sources yet, but according to the Drug Studies (Health Sciences Dept) course I took in college (undergrad), if someone wants "OUT" of an LSD trip, they should take 500mg of vitamin B3 (Also known as Niacin). It will probably make your skin red, maybe a rash.

Note: I have never needed to remove someone from a trip, we were usually seeking vitamin C (booster rockets).

One other thing that won't get rid of it but will greatly reduce the intensity is cooling your head down. Less blood flow, less activity :)

================================================================================================

maybe not to stop it, but drinking milk will mellow it out.

you can also look for a better setting, maybe you want to change location, do something different, etc. try to relax and remember it's just a trip and it will end after a while. you agreed on taking the drug, so try to make is as worthwhile as possible. try going outside, take a walk in nature; this usually feels good on psychedelic drugs.

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

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

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.

Does grapefruit interact with Valium?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Grapefruit does interact with Valium. You should use caution when using these together. I recommend not taking Valium within 6-8 hours of eating or drinking grapefruit. The grapefruit can interfere with the way your body metabolizes and uses Valium.

Can Valium be injected?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Diazepam (Valium) can be injected. But after intramuscular injection, you have an erratic absorption of the drug. So it is better given orally than intramuscularly. It should be given intravenously. But then it is given very slowly in antecubital vein and NOT in peripheral vein. You look to the face of the patient. When he closes his eyes, you stop. Otherwise the patient will stop his respiration and he can die eventually. When patient is having convulsions, it is difficult to give diazepam, intravenously. In this situation, you can give intra-rectal diazepam. Absorption of the intra-rectal diazepam should be given as cautiously as intravenous diazepam. Because absorption of intrarectal diazepam is as fast and as predictable as intravenous diazepam.
