Yes: But it is very important that you disclose this to your dentist. Take a list of all your medications, dosages, and who prescribed each one. He/she may confer with your md to make sure you are a good candidate, and if necessary, adjust your meds. It should not be a problem.

Yes: Iv sedation is safe when carried out under the supervision of a specially-trained dentist. Purely statistically speaking, it’s even safer than local anaesthetic on its own! however, contraindications include: pregnancy, known allergy to benzodiazepines, alcohol intoxication, CNS depression, and some instances of glaucoma.

Varies: The safety of sedation dentistry under psychotropic drugs should be carefully reviewed by the dentist to ensure it is appropriate. It is highly encouraged that patients discuss all medications they are currently taking before their procedure, as well as speak to their dentist about any conditions they may deal with that may affect contraindications.
