Question 1

ccan i take zoloft klonopin and restoril (temazepam) together?

Accepted Answer

Review with doctor: Klonopin and Restoril (temazepam) are similar chemically, sedating, anti-anxiety. Better to take one or the other. However, discuss with prescribing doctor to be sure you understand the reason for taking both. Avoid alcohol while taking these medications. I hope this helps.

Question 2

is it ok to take dalmane or restoril (temazepam) with klonopin and seroquel? the remeron just gives me too much appetite.

Accepted Answer

Talk to your doctor : It might be better to increase the dose of your Seroquel.  I would avoid adding another benzodiazepine such as Dalmane or Restoril (temazepam).  You are already taking Klonopin (a benzodiazepine). It's best to avoid polypharmacy and the risk of addiction. Also, you could develop rebound insomnia which means you can't sleep even though you are on medication for sleep. Talk to your doctor.

Question 3

i take ambien (zolpidem) 10mg po hs. in the past i have tried ativan 2mg, klonopin 2mg and restoril 30mg.they all make me groggy! would halcion 0.25mg be better?

Accepted Answer

Sleeping Pill: Let me see if I understand your question correctly.  You are taking a sleeping pill and you are concerned that they make you groggy.That is what they are designed to do!  If you are groggy when you wake up then you are taking too high of a dose of the medication.  All of the doses you have mentioned are the high range of the medication. Halcion is much longer acting.  Ask your doc about 1/2 Ambien (zolpidem)

Question 4

what is the main differences between temazepam and clonazepam ?

Accepted Answer

Indications: Temazapam (Restoril) is used for insomnia while clonzaepam (Klonopin) is used for anxiety and panic disorders.

Question 5

switching from clonazepam .75 for sleep to temazepam because clanazepam is not working as good as it used to be for sleep and i am feeling anxiety next day and don't want to up the dosage. will i have withdrawal issues? 15mg tmz equivalent to .75 cl?

Accepted Answer

Not quite: The excessive day time  anxiety might be because  TZ 15mg  doesn't help u enough to sleep. Best will be to increase it to 30mg. In my experience that's the most common used dose for Temazepam  as sleep aide.

Question 6

my scripts for hydrocodone, temazepam, carisoprodol, and clonazepam stopped because of a heroin od. any chance to get them back?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: You will have to convince your pain doctor that you will not do other medications, such as heroin, again.

Question 7

not on wellbutrin any more but still on topamax, clonazepam,  abilify, zopliclone , temazepam . saphris (asenapine) added and scared of all meds mixed ?

Accepted Answer

Need. A sleep eval: I am a psychiatrist and a sleep specialist. I would recommend that you get a sleep disorders consult. When things get this difficult, such an evaluation can help sort out why it is hard to knock you out and why you are so tired during the day. If you can, see a sleep doc who is also a psychiatrist.It is hard to comment on your meds without knowing your history. Average # of meds in bpd is 3.5 to 4.

Question 8

i get severe anxiety and panic attacks. i am  out of my klonopin (clonazepam). would temazapam or doxepin help?

Accepted Answer

You Need A Plan: Treating severe anxiety and panic attacks requires a plan and an ongoing relationship with a psychiatrist who is prescribing your medication and providing therapy that will be helpful to you. Substituting one medication for another depends on the particular medication, the length of time that you have been taking it, the dosage and the overall treatment plan. Review the situation with your M.D.

Question 9

is temazepam safe in pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

No: All benzodiazepines are category x according to the fda.  That means, they are contraindicated, as they can cause birth defects, miscarriage, or both.  You should definitely not be taking them.

Question 10

how long will temazepam stay in your system for a urine drug test?

Accepted Answer

Varies: figure 5 days minimum up to 1 week for  your urine to be clear, depending on age, weight and metabolism.
