Okay, so I have been around for quite awhile on these forums. Lots of people have read my previous posts about my addiction to opiates/benzos/& Pregabalin. Anyways, I am on Suboxone currently still, and on a Diazepam taper. But I happened to come across some apparently 30mg Phenobarbital tablets. They are small white, biconvex tablets from South Africa. Anyways, I know Phenobarb or at least have heard that it is probably the shittiest Barbiturate out there, but I have never taken a Barbituate before, and so far just about 20 mins ago I took 2 of these 30mg tabs. I also have some Flunitrazepam 1mg tablets (3). Would these go good together? Would More Lyrica (Pregabalin) help boost the flunitrazepam? I also take Metoprolol 50mg usually just once a day, and have been on Metoprolol for quite some time now.. maybe a year or two?
Anyway, back to Barbiturates.. how do they differ from Benzodiazepines, and how do they compare? I know Barbiturates target the GABA-A Receptor as well I believe. But can somebody shed some more light on Barbs for me?
I'm also on Effexor XR (I know a lot of drugs here..) but have been weaned off quite a few. And I'm only on 75mg/day of Effexor XR. Is the dose of phenobarb I took (60mg) considered a small dosage? According to Wiki, I think it is. I know a lot about pharmacology and all other drugs, but I never did and still do not know much about Barbiturates.
Thanks fellow BLers.
