A freind of mine is presriced 10mg diazepam and 2mg haloperidol pills....he tell me..

[Soylent]

The haloperidol is a catalyst to the diazepam I dont believe him...Hes telling me lies and propaganda isnt he ?

By catalyst do you mean increases the effects of the diazepam? (That's not really the exact definition of "catalyst", but I assume that's what you meant).

Haloperidol is an anti-psychotic. Haloperidol causes sedation, and sedation may be greater if haloperidol is taken with benzos, since benzos cause sedation as well. I read one study that said that short-term use of diazepam might make the anti-psychotic effects of haloperidol stronger.

Haloperidol is a potent antipsychotic, and should not be taken recreationally, in case you're thinking that mixing it with valium will be fun. And I too am inferring that by "catalyst" you mean potentiator? ^Refer to above post.

is he a liar? why would he lie? i have a friend who lies about his whole life so i understand but ask will he lie and why would he lie?

 

[hangyourhead]

Haloperidol is complete, utter shit if it's not prescribed to you. It is no catalyst of any sort, as others told you it will increase sedation, but not in a good way and it would be a shameful waste to combine it with diazepam recreationally. Haloperidol is a dirty drug with dirty side effects.

It's prescribed for schizophrenia, acute psychotic states, and delirium... that might explain why the OP's friend is making that shit up?

I think my friend you should do a little of your own research to comfirme in your mind if your friend is lying.Dont take one persons word for it gather data to support or not the theory.But like the above posts said dont try mixing these 2 medications it could have serious repacutions!!!!
