How Long Does It Take Valium To Work (Page 3)
(Newest replies first)

Please respond. I have never taken it and it was just prescribed for me. I have taken other benzos but they don't help my extreme anxiety. Hoping this will.

To b fair that's not very helpful. A fifth of a valium would not touch anybody especially for her anxiety like she described. I ain't dissing you or anything.but you can't compare a 5th to a full one

Yes, valium should help immensely out of all the benzos i've tried. They should offer a good solution.

Ok not being selfish but who thiks the 10s are stronger than the 5s and the 5 s stronger than 2s of diazepam i personally think teva 5mg are best about at moment those generic are no way near as strong like wyeth upjohn cox roche were all good makes back in day now their weaker anyone agree

Try Luvox, it has worked for me for years.
Generic is Fluvoximine.

I've been on it a couple times 5 to 6 years at a time ( heavy use) and have come off them twice. The withdrawal sucks really bad but it's all mind over matter. After a few months you start to get back to normal.

Please be careful of substituting pills for alcohol. Pills are incredibly addictive for us alcoholics .

Usually about 15 minutes. The full affect takes around 30 minutes.

Dear lord, x4 5mg should have really affectedyou if uu've never had them before.. That's unbelievable, usually when I have them once or 2ce a week for my anxiety, & even 2 or 3, make me extremely relaxed after 20-30mins.! Make sure u tell your doctor, unless you're used to them, they should be helping ALOT. But u do get used to them VERY quickly & build up a tolerance if u use them every day, so try your best to only use Val's or xan's 2-3 times a week if possible. & ask your therapist for excersises u can do to help with everyday anxiety.! Good luck.!

My experience was on an empty stomach. Went to stand up and my legs were noodles for a bit. On full stomach it just calmed me. You have to keep taking them threw the day.
