BENZODIAZEPINES:\n\nDefinition: The term, benzodiazepine, refers to the chemical structure of a variety of drugs that can relieve anxiety, inhibit convulsions, produce muscle relaxation, and promote sleep. Generally, the reduction in anxiety is produced by lower doses of drug, and the promotion of sleep occurs at higher doses. Below is a list of the drugs in this class.\n\nAlprazolam (Xanax)\nChlordiazepoxide (Librium)\nClonazepam (Klonopin)\nChlorazepate (Tranxene)\nDiazepam (Valium)\nEstazolam (ProSom)\nFlurazepam (Dalmane)\nHalazepam (Paxipam)\nLorazepam (Ativan)\nMidazolam (Versed)\nOxazepam (Serax)\nPrazepam (Centrax)\nQuazepam (Doral)\nTemazepam (Restoril)\nTriazolam (Halcion) \n\nThe Temazepam is perscribed to people so they do not wake up frequently throughout the night.\nSo anyways if he has had a perscription for any of those he should be fine. Good luck.

Careful !!  Ana Nicole's son mixed Methadone with Anti-Depressants.  My husband's Cousin's Son mixed Cocaine with Anti-Depressants and was pronounced Brain Dead !!!   Maybe you should ask a Pharmacist, call the pharmacy, they'll let you talk to him/her.  You may be putting yourself in harms way !!

i agree with christoph...s. Call the police. This situation is one in which you cannot control any more than he apparently can. This is not behavior that should be tolerated. If he goes to jail it might save his life and your sanity ! at least in jail he will have no choice, but to stop using. And also they have NA (narcotics anon.) meetings and some sort of re-hab services available to him. I know it's a hard decision to make but I wish I had done that for my husband, He died due to a cocaine overdose and I was a widow at age 27, Please think about it. God Bless you and your dad.

anywhere form taking sudaphed, to prescription medications. I took a drug test and they failed me because i take a prescripition medacation. If you take sudaphed or cold medicines, you can come up positive for pcp.

im a medical assistant at a drug testing facility. we have to tell people that the test in inconclusive or "non-negative" because we cant tell you that its positive. more than likely it will be if they sent it to the lab though. some medications, however, do show up (pain med, etc.). if it were diluted (too much water) it would have showed negative on a quick screen. (those only show neg or positive). e-mail me if you want to.

In todays society, there is limited space and money in the state mental health departments.  Normally those prisoners who are beleived to be functional if they merely take medication will not be keep in a mental health facility for long any more.  ( states over the past few years often "dump" thier residences on to the street with instructions to report to a state hospital daily for medication)  ** and we all know how well that works.\n\nAnd it is possible that they may be "giving" him medication, not forcing him to take it.  ( jailis and prisons unless there is an order can not force someone to take medication)\n\nThis is sadly about norm for our system of justice today.\nYour money would be better spent on an attorney to file a motion to get him on his medication.

It will take 3 days to come out of your urine and 7 for no traces to be found in your blood. Most probation/parole officers do not test for hallucinogenic drugs unless you are suspected of using them. Your best bet is to take niacin and lots of water if it is a urine test. If you are tested for hallucinogenic drugs and a panel 32 drug test is used, you will more likely test positive. Good luck

Be very careful w/xanax.  If you go to the hospital, they'll probably give you more drugs.  Check out /www.benzo.org.uk to learn more about xanax and what it does to your body and then check out www.benzoisland.org if you'd like to avoid serious problems.

Sometimes certain drugs can be found in common over-the-counter medications (thus the reason why they normally ask you if you have taken any medication before the give you a urine test). Also, it has been shown that certain foods you eat before taking various drug tests can cause a positive result for a drug. An experiment was done where a person eat a bagel with poppy seeds on it and then took a urine test. the person tested positive for opium! Go figure!!

Not usually.  Since people respond differently to meds, it would be a good idea to call your pharmacist about side effects of valium and then call your doctor.   The symptoms you describe may be due to medication or something else entirely.  Only your doctor can check out your response.

That drug causes paranoia. When I used to do it, I would see and hear things that were not there, partially because I would be worried about getting caught, you always think the cops are right around the corner. If you've been up a few days, maybe you are suffering from sleep deprivation and are seeing things. If that's the case, please, just go to sleep.

Yes Ive had personal experience withdrawing from the benzodiazepines(xanax), and it was complete hell. they gave me klonopin to help so I wouldn't get seizures. Klonopin shouldn't be as bad to withdrawl from as xanax though because of the much longer half life. I think you just need to find another doctor to prescibe it to you, you shouldn't feel guilty being dependent on it to stop panic attacks.

I agree with RKRELL and in addition according to what you state in your question with regards to "Due to the fact that her lover told me he was arrested for possession of cocaine that he was going to give her for her birthday last month", I would say you definitely want to make your attorney aware of this. This being true it would seem to me this 'lover' could provide both testimony as to her personal habits of both drug use and adultery which in most states would at the very least afford you possible temporary custody of your sons.

Good answer-Ill just add that benzodiazepines are not normally associated with death from overdose, because they are not central nervous system depressants-but just a little alcohol, choral hydrate, or barbiturate can make be a fatal combination.  Usually people hear "dont drink with these pills" and think it means "dont get drunk"  But in the case of benzos, even a small amount of alcohol can be extremely dangerous.
