Last night I took around 7 of my sisters Halcion dosages which were around 0.125mg but I only fell unconscious? I understand that people who die from overdose of sleeping pills is due to severe erosion of the stomach wall, resulting in stomach acids entering the body cavity, and that then digests/melts other organs. Severe abdominal bleeding occurs, and ultimately heart failure due to loss of blood. What pills would you guys recommend?

My top two wisdom teeth is connected to my sinus and my bottom two are connected to my nerves, one in which is tilted to the side angled downward. I plan on having the surgery on a Tuesday morning. However, i am scheduled to take the ACT the following Saturday. Should i reschedule for the Tuesday after the ACT or will i be fine by the day of the ACT. I was given prescriptions to Halcion and Amoxil, in case this information might help out with anyone's answer.

My bottle says take 2 .25 halcion pills 2 hours before dental appointment has anyone every been told to do this? and why not just 1?

I've had sleep issues for close to 6 years now. I've done sleep studies which reveal nothing abnormal which could cause them. The main issue is actually falling asleep. I just can't seem to shut my brain off at night. I constantly worry about everything, and have also dealt with a serious depression when my sister died. I've been in counseling for close to 5 years and we've tried every non-medication tool when it comes to getting to sleep, IE. exercise, journaling, getting back up when I can't

At what point would you say someone you agree with politically is personally unfit? Not "the other party's candidate" -- YOUR OWN? If one of the three women who accused Clinton of sexual assault had been proven correct, NOT the VOLUNTARY participant, but a victim of rape -- would that have been enough for a Democratic Party supporter to oppose him? How about if Bush Sr.'s addiction to the drug Halcion had been more publicized? Would a Republican have said "that's too much"? Nixon's binge

There have been rumors that Obama suffers from bipolar disorder. I have no idea whether they are true or not. However, every recent president has had SOMETHING. Why don't we find out about these things, usually, until long after they are out of office? JFK's amphetamine addiction LBJ's scatological fetishes Nixon's binge drinking and psychotic rages Ford's brain damage Carter's Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Reagan's having never actually recovered from the assassination attempt, and his Al

I am supposed to go to the dentist tomorrow to have a five hour procedure done. They said that I will need to come in 30 minutes early so they can give me both halcion and xanax orally to sedate me. I am very afraid of what this is like, does anyone have any experience with this? I am also afraid that I will not like the effects and there will be nothing I can do about it. I have been prescribed xanax before and when I accidentally took too much I started shaking! I had a low tolerance and I h

The tooth is fractured and they are administering triazolam (halcion) for oral sedation.. is it known to work?.. also doing a bone graft..anything to be concerned over?

For example I think the most powerful is "Rohypnol", then "Xanax", then "Clonazepam", then "Ativan" etc. I would like to know what you think is the most powerful to the least powerful. Just for reference, these are the benzo's: Valium, Serepax, Ativan, Xanax, Frisium, Clonazepam, Bromazepam, Temazepam, Halcion, Mogadon, and Rohypnol. All replies will be appreciated.

Hi im a 23 yr old male. 130lbs 5ft 9. Over the past few years I have been taking different pills prescribed to me by my doctor. Sleeping pills such as halcion, dalmane, stilnoct, zimovane, noctamid. The reason for the list is beacuse they never seemed to work and I have extreme insomnia. I also have been prescribed 1mg xanax for 1 month and have been on cipramil for past year following a 2 year course of effexor. Its alot of drugs I KNOW. The only pill I take now is cipramil 30mg once a day.

i suffer from very severe chronic anxiety. after multiple prescription, i have no anxiety relief from Valium, Xanax, Serapax, Ativan, Rivotril/Klonipin, Lexotan, Halcion, Temazepam and Mogadon. please help give me a list that i haven't used. make sure there available in Australia.

I want to get regular supplies of Lexotan for panic attack, Carisoma for lumbar muscle problem, Lysanxia 40mg for thanatophobia, my correct dosage of Xanax which is 2mg tablets or bars 3 per day, and two sleep aids, Rohypnol 2mg, and Halcion 0.25mg. I also need Dicodid, an antitussive for painful dry hacking cough. That is only on German market but all the rest I can get in Belgium. I have an EHIC which should keep costs to virtually travel only. And like the USA can I do this every 90 days?

I'm still pretty young but I've had insomnia for a long time now. Part of it was genetic and part of it was stress. After going through several different medications for 2 years, I was finally prescribed one that actually worked. But now it's becoming a problem. It made me gain a lot of weight, become totally miserable, lose my drive and passion for everything and have experienced drastic changes in my mood. For about 7 months now everything has become so noticeable to myself that I can no lon

I am a 25 year old female with a terrible fear of needles. Next Tuesday I have an appointment to get two fillings done. I've never had fillings before, but I have had Novocaine injections and have put off this appointment because of the use of needles. My dentist prescribed me .25mg of Halcion (2 pills--one for the night before and one to take about an hour before the appointment.) I've never been on any kind of pain killer or sedative other than the occasional OTC sleeping pills which usually

I may have to get a palatal injection for a root canal this week. If I couldn't care less about an IV, will I be able to handle this? I will be getting 2 halcion pills, too (both 25mg)

I am getting a root canal done on my top right molar (second to last not counting wisdom teeth) and am pretty sure may have to get a palatal injection. I will be getting halcion I WILL NOT BE GETTING NITROUS! I have a pretty high pain tolerance Rate the pain 1-10 (10 being very very very painful) 10 points to best answer

For dental anxiety btw. I am getting a root canal done and my dentist prescribed me 2 triazolam pills (25 mg each). I AM NOT GETTING NITROUS GAS OR ANY OTHER DRUGS!!! Will I be awake? Will I still feel pain from the injection? Will I still be scared/nervous? How long does it take for it to take effect? Best answer gets 100+ points

I had all four of my infected, impacted, abscessed, fully grown wisdom teeth extracted yesterday. The only oral surgeon in the state my insurance would allow me to use was, of course, a two hour drive away. Upon further research, I found that he has had to pay a few settlements to patients, bad reviews from patients, and actual warnings from a couple of them. Of course, I only googled this the night before my procedure so there was no way of getting out of it. The dental hygienist had instru

I have adhd. I didn't think it was real but I am full of potential and my life was floating away, I take ritalin and since I started I have improved sleep (I now sleep 8-10 hrs instead of 4), I feel focused and clear minded. I know that adhd is real. I see how alot of my friends get when they take ritalin. They get energy, they clean their houses spotless and get very talkative. It's funny I am all those things when I don't take my ritalin. For me it just calms down my body and mind, I don't g

I am having a full mouth extraction this week. They will be using oral conscious sedation, for which I've been given prescriptions for Halcion 0.25 mg 4 pills, Vistaril 50 mg 2 pills and Percocet for after the procedure. The Halcion and Vistaril I will not take until I get to the office, and after taken I will wait approximately one hour until they begin. My concern is that I have several molars that are broken at the gum line and have only root tips sticking out. I was given an estimated time

i got 30 mgs restoril and .25 of halcion n neither work alone is it safe to take together?

seizures, panic attacks, sensativity to light?

Has anyone ever taken this drug before for a dental appnt? Im getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth out and a root canal done in a few days and my dentist prescribed me triazolam(halcion) to take 30 min prior to my appnt. Im a BIG baby when it comes to the dentist and im absolutly terrified...anyones input with use of this drug would be great. Thankyou!

Why is this medication prescribed? Alprazolam is used to treat anxiety disorders and panic attacks. Alprazolam is in a class of medications called benzodiazepines. It works by decreasing abnormal excitement in the brain. How should this medicine be used? Alprazolam comes as a tablet and a concentrated solution (liquid) to take by mouth. It usually is taken two to four times a day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part

I've been diagnosed with depression then anxiety now adhd. I have bad insomnia and was prescribed 30mg of temazepam to take each night. The first night I was getting ready for bed and took a temazepam capsule and it woke me up!? I was WIDE awake and felt like I was ready to face the day..but it was night. It took me 5 hours to finally fall asleep. Then I was put on 0.5mg of halcion and same thing happened. Whats up with this? Like last year I was put on valium's the blue 10's for anxiety and t

First my dentist numbed me but apparently it was in the wrong spot because I felt this women's every touch, imagine someone taking a pliers on your tooth right now, it hurt so bad I cried like a baby and I'm 26 I can usually hold it in, but anyway they called another dentist into the room and she stuck me in the right place it was a struggle but they got it out. I was suppose to be sedated with halcion but it didnt do much for me, I guess its a good thing I wasnt sleep, that would have been e

mature answers only please. when taking .5mg of Hacion, how long is it before i start to feel the effects. and what should i expect?

I had been taking Dexedrine Spansules, 15mg each, 90mg daily. Invega 6mg daily, and Halcion .5 mg nightly. I've had three separate occasions of what my psychiatrist told me is dystonia. All of them ended up with me in the hospital shouting and crying. They started when I was 17, I'm 18 now. It first started with me talking to my mom, I felt as if I was chewing on my tongue, my words werent coming out clearly. From there my neck bent all the way to the left and was being pushed farther than it

Hi. I'm taking .5mg Champix I'm day 4 which mean another pill at night. Last night I took a sleeping pill(halcion 1/2( 250mg ) tablet and It only let me sleep for 3hrs. before I woke up hyper and am still hyper. Anyone have any answers or suggestions

I'm getting my tattoo soon, I just want to make sure that none of my prescribed meds will cause any conflict. I take Invega, which I use for my bi-polar, it's a mood stabilizer similar to Risperdal, also used for schizophrenia. Then I take Cogentin for dystonia, it's a anticholinergic/antihistamine which serves as a dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Then there is Halcion which is a benzo sedative/hypnotic, the half life is 2-4 hours so I don't think it would really cause any problems but I'm not 10

im going to the dentist and getting my cavaties filled and im taking this medicince and im really nervous. my dentist says tthat im not even going to know whats going on...do you have any personal experinences that you took that medicince?

Growing up I always went to the dentist every 6 months, and my teeth were always well cared for. For the last little while, while I was in college I am pretty sure I saw the worst dentist ever, like the one from "Little Shop of Horrors" and that was basically because I didn't have health insurance. I went to the dentist today, 2 years later, to a good dentist who informed me that I needed a root canal(or two) on tooth #14, wherever that is. I had a total panic attack and he gave me a prescri

I'm Bi-Polar and my manic states have been really bad, staying up for 3 or 4 days in a row and becoming more psychotic as time progressed. I have been on invega and cogentin (I have dystonia) and have also tried many different drugs for sleep. My moods aren't super sporadic anymore but my sleep is still horrible. I have tried Ambien CR, Lunesta, 3mg Xanax, 4mg klonopin, Dalmane, Restoril, 20mg Valium, Ativan, Chloral Hydrate. I have also taken Halcion which did work at .75mg but I don't feel c

For insomnia, by the way.

I havent taken my halcion yet, but it sounds like a break from the frantic paxil effect? My doctor prescribed this to me, is it ok to take these together?

I'm prescribed Halcion for insomnia & am wondering if I can keep getting the Halcion and get a benzodiazepine for anxiety.

I was prescribed Halcion to take before a dental procedure......is it good to take to reduce my anxiety about and and will it make me sleep during it or atleast be out of it enough to deal?? If you can't already tell, i have a serious phobia of the dentist.

I know UK banned the drug. But a team of "scientists" is pushing it here, despite it's horrible past. I didn't know if other countries use it, or whether its banning is really bothering anyone -- are alternatives working well - ie midazolam, valium? My daughter has brain damage after an overdose by dentist in the U.S., which acts if the FDA's lowering the dosage and the UK's banning was frivolous -- they don't even mention the bizarre psychological side effects it's famous for, now being forg

they put her on halcion for sleep and she blacked out and does not remember doing it. the sides are raisor cut and she is mortified and very depressed what can I do to help her cover it up?

I had an Essure procedure done at my doctor's office on Tuesday. I was given two halcion pills and passed out right before the procedure. During the procedure I woke up and felt EVERYTHING. When it was done I was supposed to walk out 30 minutes later. It took 2 hours in the fetal position crying and shaking and nauseated before I could be wheeled out of the office in a wheel chair. I ended up throwing up in the car on the way home with NO warning. It's Thursday and I'm still in so much p

I had the Essure procedure done Tuesday. The doctor gave me halcion to make my uterus relax and knock me out. Half way through the procedure, I woke up and felt everything. After it was done, I laid on the table in a fetal position shaking and crying from the pain. I was supposed to walk out a half an hour later, it took me two hours to be able to get into a wheel chair to be driven home. I was also very nauseated and ended up throwing up in the car. I'm still in a horrible amount of pai

I don't want to know anything going on through the procedure.

Nite before I take Ambien CR and Valium, next morning take Halcion and before procedure another pill. Will I sleep through procedure? I don't want to know anything going on until it is all over. Anyone taken these sedatives before dential procedure? How did it work? THANKS!

Don;t want to know anything going on during the root canal.
