Absolutely not.  This medication is prescribed by a physician only.  Without consent, not only is it illegal, but it could have adverse side effects that the user would otherwise not know about.  Do not take this medication without consulting a physician or pharmacist.

This is absolutely not real.  This is not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration, therefore it's a scam.  There is absolutely no way Lasik is able to be done on a generic basis, as there are many different procedures involved in the surgery.  For example, an astigmatism causes the development of an irregularly shaped cornea.  How would the Lasik Buddy (or whatever it's called) auto-correct the incision site?  There is also glaucoma, cataracts, etc...  which must be taken into account.  \nI'm actually fairly certain this little system is in direct violation of the FDA Laws.  If you attempt to use this, you are taking a huge risk with your eyesight.\n\nEssentially, this wacko wants you to take a sedative and then stick a laser in your eyes?   Yikes!  \n\nNeuroProf adds, "Diazepan (aka Valium), the drug issued with the kit, is a Class 3 Controlled Substance and therefore must be prescribed by a physician.  It is illegal \nto distribute generically."\n\nPeople who are on Valium can't operate an automobile, much less perform surgery(!?) on themselves.

Definitely a life destroyer.\n\nDiazepam is only the generic name for valium, they are one and the same (as is Librium, just a stronger version of valium).\n\nI was given Valium about 20 years ago for sleep disorders. Sure it made me sleep - I slept for 10 hours a night; but did I wake up feeling refreshed? No!. Because diazepam is a CNS depressant. It makes you sleepy, but it depresses REM sleep. REM sleep is the bit that refreshes you mentally (non-REM sleep might refresh you physically, but I think the jury is out on that one). After realising that it was making me sleep but also making me feel more tired, I gave up. \n\nI count myself lucky that I was not persuaded to take it for longer. From what I have read recently, it is very addictive and causes more problems than it solves. \n\nHowever, having had large doses of diazepam in single pre-op IV injections, I can say that it has its attractions in short term high doses.... mmmmmmmmmmmm!

xanax is brand name alprazolam. "bars" is the term for the rectangular 2 mg dosage (the highest dosage distributed in the US in original form; an extended release form of the medication is now on the market). "xanax bars" are commonly mistaken as being 20 mg. this is incorrect. Alprazolam, like lorazepam (ativan), and clonazepam (klonopin), are chemically related to diazepam (valium). all are members of the benzodiazepam family of medications, used to treat anxiety and mood disorders. diazepam is much more effective than the other benzodiazepines at treating muscle tension. in the united states, the fda has regulated the benzodiazepines as a schedule IV controlled substance. avoid large doses of alcohol while taking any sedative medication.

No.  Valerian root is prepared from a native North American herb, Valerianus oficinalis.  Valium generic name "diazepam"), on the other hand, is a "benzodiazepine", a synthetic sedative and skeletal muscle relaxant.  They are both sedative, but they have different mechanisms of action.  Valerian root has no skeletal muscle effect, and does not interfere with memory like Valium.  I don't know of any study that has shown that people become dependent upon or addicted to valerian, but it happens that people do become dependent upon benzodiazepines.  The effect of valerian root is not made worse if taken with alcohol, the same is NOT true of Valium.\n  Both are sedative, both have anti-seizure activity, but the two are chemically quite different and have different safety profiles.

I also take Clonazepam, 2 tabs per day.  Do not even attempt to try to turn it into an intravenous med.  You will kill yourself.  Instead please go back to your doctor and explain your situation and ask for a second benzo diazapine to be added.  Some like Valium would work well for you as it is long acting like Clonazepam.  If your doctor will not do this then find a doctor who will.  Take care!!

Only the lavender scented kind is considered a controlled substance.

i work in a pharmacy and i constantly see people prescribed some type of SSRI, selective seretonin re-uptake inhibitor, along with some type of benzodiazepine, which ares anxolytics.\n\nSSRIs such as \nProzac - Fluoxetine \nZoloft - Sertraline\nWellbutrin - Buproprion\n\nin combonation with benzodiazepines such as\nXanax - alprazolam\nValium - Diazepam\nAtivan - Lorazepam\n\nthese combonations occur quite frequently, you should definately ask your doctor or local pharmacist if there are any certain reactions you should know about, but from my experience in a pharm, those 2 mixes occur all the time.

Quaaludes (methqualone) was abandoned in favor of safer sorts of anti-anxiety medications.  The original generation of sedatives was the barbiturates, but these were very dangerous, since they exert their depressant effects on the parts of the CNS (the hind brian) that control life functions like breathing--hence, overdose could easily result in death (in fact, in California right now, they're trying to use a lethal dose of barbiturates to kill a person sentenced to die; these were the drugs also used in the Heaven's Gate mass suicide).\n\nSince barbiturates were so dangerous, doctors sought a drug that would act as a depressant but exert its effects specifically on the parts of the brain that do NOT control life-sustaining functions.  Methqualone was an improvement on barbiturates, but after the so-called "hypnotics" like Diazepam (aka Valium), these sorts of hindbrain CNS depressants were largely abandoned.  Quaaludes are far more dangerous than things like Valium and Ambien, so the FDA kicked out methqualone in favor of the other new generation of hypnotics (especially since 'ludes were being abused, and abuse can result in death, especially if mixed with other depressants).

I don't know what the history of diazepam is. I know that the trade name is Valium. You can administer it IV, IM, and PO. It is used for mild to moderate anxiety related to delirium tremens, drug withdrawal, and psychotic diseases. I will be anxious to find out the history of this drug.
