Diazepam Tablets 10mg Double Score Lines (Page 2)

Received these from what I thought was a reputable pharmacy - small blue pills, Roche 10 on one side, two score lines on back, and slightly thicker than the previous generic valium I was used to taking. Are these safe?

First of all, please understand that my intent was certainly not to pass judgment, and I do apologize if the phrasing of my question came off as "interrogative," or otherwise adversarial. The nature of my curiosity was truly innocuous, in that I was truly interested in knowing your rationale for importing a medication that is, in my experience, reasonably accessible, albeit with a prescription. With that said, the clarification is appreciated and, with all due respect, you don't have to prove anything to me. I asked a perfectly fair question, which you chose to answer and, no matter what your response, it's not my place to express any personal opinion of approval or dissent.

With that said, I, too, have a chronic anxiety disorder, and recognize the importance of an effective pharmacotherapy regimen to manage symptoms (especially those with a rapid time to onset, i.e. anxiety and panic attacks), relieve inhibitions, and improve overall quality of life.

It almost sounds to me as though your physician is, perhaps, unfamiliar with how diazepam is prescribed. A single 5mg tablet, taken orally once per day, would be thoroughly ineffective for the management of any condition for which it is indicated. In adults, oral diazepam is dosed at 2mg to 10mg, taken between 2 and 4 times per day for anxiety, depending on severity. If you currently see your primary care physician for anxiety, it may be worth your time to request that he or she refer you to a specialist in psychiatric medicine for continuity of care. Alternatively, if it is your psychiatrist who oversees your medication management, and you feel your care is inadequate, it would be well within your right to seek treatment from another provider altogether.

To offer a personal anecdote, the first psychiatrist to whom I was referred was very vocal about her aversion toward benzodiazepines (diazepam, clonazepam, alprazolam, etc.) due to their habit-forming nature, and prescribed an antihistamine known as Vistaril (hydroxyzine pamoate) for my anxiety, along with Prozac (fluoxetine). At subsequent follow-up visits, I vocalized my dissatisfaction with Vistaril as an anxiolytic, as I was not experiencing any symptomatic relief, even after two months at the maximum indicated dosage. [The provider also failed to recognize the highly-visible urticaria that I developed in an allergic reaction to the Prozac.] Needless to say, I elected to leave this provider on the basis of ineffectiveness of treatment and borderline-malpractice, and established a relationship with my current psychiatrist, who has been absolutely amazing to work with.

I know you just came here for recommendations on where to source pharmaceuticals and, obviously, I'm unable to give you that. Nevertheless, whether or not you choose to derive any meaningful use from anything I've said, I hope you do find a means by which to effectively manage your anxiety, and be safe.

Each prescription I fill I send a couple to the testing place named Wedinos and the test has always proven them to be diazepam rather than anything else.
