Question 6

can i take more than 0.5 grams of triazolam for dental work?

Accepted Answer

NO!: Maybe a typo, but 0.5 grams is about 1000 times the normal dose for Halcion (triazolam).  Normal for dental work is 0.25-0.5 milligrams.  You should follow dosing as recommended and prescribed by your dentist.  If you feel strongly that you need a higher dose, discuss it with your dentist, but do not self prescribe--that's dangerous.

No: Unless you are in withdrawal from it. That would be caused by something else or anxiety that is severe like a panic attack. Get evaluated ASAP.

is it dangerous to take triazolam and effexor (venlafaxine) together?

Accepted Answer

No: Halcion is a fast acting sedative that isn't prescribed much any more.  Effexor (venlafaxine) is a dual acting antidepressant usually given in the am because it tends to be stimulating.

Question 9

i have restoril and  halcion (triazolam). ne work, is it safe to take together?

Accepted Answer

Not a good idea: Halcion is triazolam, and Restoril is temazepam.  Both are benzodiazepine sleeping pills.  Their effects are very similar — Restoril lasts longer — and would add together if taken at the same time.  It is considered poor medical practice to take multiple medications that do the same thing: the results are less predictable and more drug interactions can result.  Both meds are habit-forming too.

Question 10

i just took two 500 mg vicodin, and 3 triazolam will this put me to bed or make me hallucinate first?

Accepted Answer

Increased sedation: Additive effects could lead to sleep and even increased mortality.
