DIAZEPAM vs VENLAFAXINE

I stopped at a Mexican pharmacy while on vacation and was shown a laminated paper that I assume is meant to advertise and list prices for drugs that Americans commonly want to purchase in Mexico. It was mostly C4s and below (or above in numbers rather). I didn’t recognize redotex and asked to see th

The following happened in europe. Today at 8:30 a young man came into the pharmacy and demanded a bottle of Diazepam drops from my coworker. She told him he needs a prescription for that and that she can't sell it without. He begins to talk louder and says he wants only 1 bottle and so on and so f

I used to love my job. As a pharmacist at an Albertsons store, I had it all. A manageable workload, great pay at $75 an hour, and the satisfaction of knowing I was making a difference in my community. I filled about 50 to 60 prescriptions a day, enough to keep me busy but not overwhelmed. Life was g

I know a patient who takes both Xanax and Diazepam together. Both were prescribed by the same doctor but one is taken at bedtime and the other as needed during the day. I have never seen that and was worried about the duplicate therapy but apparently they have been on both for months now. The other

In another sub, many people were arguing about the problems of getting hold of alcohol (as in drinking liquor) and some said that they would get withdrawal symptoms. One person who seems to have some knowledge of medicine really went overboard with the horror stories. I told him that in my country p

This must be a very trivial question but since English is not my first language I have to ask because for me the meaning is ambiguous. I have read this a couple of times now where it says in a formulation (e.g.:http://www.pharminfotech.co.nz/manual/Formulation/mixtures/diazepam.html) "Water to 100mL

Got a phone call today which basically went like this. Me: Such-and-such Pharmacy this is %67%, how can I help you? Junkie(?): My girlfriend got a prescription from you guys about twenty minutes ago and there was a problem with it. Me: Okay what was your girlfriend's name so I can look up her dispen

RN here. As I understand it, both are dissolved in propylene glycol. Why does our unit store lorazepam in the fridge but diazepam is in the pyxis? Thanks!

I just needed to vent about my depression and my issues with society's stance on it somewhere. I thought these were supposed to be the best years of my life? I'm not ugly, and I like to think I'm funny and friendly, so why don't people like me? I'm always alone. Always, always, always. I've spent my

Chronic fatigue. I feel so so tired and weak all the time. Brain fog so bad it is even hard to read and comprehend stuff. Insomnia. I have to take strong sedatives to sleep. I feel like death after waking up. Developed bruxism in my sleep. Noticed it only after it fvcked up all my teeth and they s

Hi all, I unfortunately, went through a tough antidepressant withdrawal from Venlafaxine, and after finding out how common the issue was I decided to get started on creating an application to help. The app is simple and just allows you to keep track of your symptoms as they come, so you can identify

*This is more of a rant than anything. I'm sorry for the formatting. I am on mobile and not really able to think clearly right now*   One month ago, I was put in a psych ward by my parents (I'm still a minor) during what was one of the worst depressive episodes I have ever had. I was physic

I am at the end of my rope right now, and I have nowhere else to go except jump. I wake up every morning wishing it would all stop, and it's my last thought before falling asleep. I am finishing up my PhD this year, but I don't have nearly the job prospects I was expecting. I am in a field as a m

*This is a super long post*, but before I started my AD I was looking for something detailed like this to see people's progressions on their meds. I had a hard time finding much, and this is why I decided to track my own progress and share after 6 weeks. Backstory: 26yr F, have had anxiety and mild

I take Venlafaxine. Just increased from 75 mg to 150 mg. I used to masturbate a lot. Not everyday...but most days. Now I have absolutely zero urge to. I’m talking to a girl now and she says that she’s a “freak” sexually. But I’m basically asexual now because of my meds. So of course.

Hi, Reddit, Over the past month, I have been weaning off of Venlafaxine, I was only on it for 3 months but it has been a debilitating experience that should be taken seriously! After a lot of research, I have noticed many people have been taking these medications for years and the withdrawal symptom
