Updated

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.

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

I am 7 months pregnant and I've been having these episodes of panic/anxiety attacks before I was pregnant, but again it started recently and I saw a doctor, and she prescribed fluoxetine 10mg and Valium 5mg. Any opinion on this?

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

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.

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

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

Hi crocket, my gp wants me off them too. I think all doctors are the same. I think they have had orders to get people off them without knowing what it ever does to that person who really needs them. Wish I could find a dr who will give them to you because he understands. If you find one let me know. I have them for sleep and anxiety attacks but I need them. What do I do?

I know this is a old post. But if you have no tolerance it's going to mainly make you so sleepy that you pass out!
