Just a recommendation. . . don't mix xannax with zanaflex and trazadone in any decent amount. I take all of these at times, generally seperately and think that they are great medicines.
Recently I used them in moderate doses, in conjunction with several other substances, to try to alleviate some mild withdrawal symptoms. I ended up feeling worse than had I just left well enough alone. Fucking so dizzy upon standing that I thought I was going to drop, week and run down, and so sleepy that I couldn't keep my chin off of my chest no matter how hard I tried- and not in the good nodding opiate way.
I thought that I overdosed on that shit and wouldn't let myself go to sleep for fear that I wouldn't wake up. That probably wouldn't be the case, but it felt like it and I figure better safe than sorry.
The other stuff in the mixture was high doses of vitamin B compounds and some loperamide. Maybe the loperamide contributed to the problem as it can depress the CNS a bit it's self.
Normally, the trazadone is great for sleep, the zanaflex works well for muscle tension and causes mild drowsiness, and xanax is great for calming you down a bit. The problem I think was tossing the high dose of the muscle relaxer on top of everything after a decent dolop of xanax.
Reading up afterward, trazadone can lower blood pressure, and so can the zanaflex. Throw in some alprazolam to potentiate the other two together and I think it lead to dangerously low BP. A little too much shit in the mixture, you know?
It reminded me of clonodine, which makes me feel worse than just being in WD if I take it, but WAY worse!!! It kind of freaked me out. Just figured I would throw that out there as a warning, although I am not suggesting anyone reading this is as dumb as me;)
I didn't get the nick name chemical boy for nothing. . .with all of the truly dangerous shit we put into our bodies, sometimes I forget to take into account that other medications can be some serious shit too.
Oh well.
