Hey guys quick Q.... im experienced with opiates and have def had my fair share of benzo experience as well.... My Q is related to the order of taking them for best results.

On occasion ill mix an opiate with a benzo for potentiating purposes. Sometimes ill notice the benzo will kill some of the opiate high. SO my Q is what has worked for you guys to get the best results. Should i take the opiate first then add the benzo, should i take the benzo first then add the opiate, or should i take them at the same time?


Thanks in advance!
 
It really depends on what works for you, some people like to take them both at the same time, others like to stagger the dosages. The reaction varies from person to person.

Personally I like to take benzos and then the opiates an hour or more later.
 
Benzo first IMO. This will sedate and relax you. Then take the opiate and it will bring you "up", while you are relaxed, and the effects should be very pleasant. A benzo dose after a good opiate dose might dull the opiate experience and lead to too much sedation. It just makes sense to relax the body first get the GABA firing, and then let the opiates do their magic. Caution: this combination is very dangerous.
 
yep im aware Alex im an opiate veteran (not that this is cool or something i suggest to others) and i have taken benzos many times to increase my dosage of opiates. I was just curious as to others people opinions. Thanks again for your responses and more would be greatly appreciated!
 
I take my opiate pain meds first to make sure I'm ok, then my benzo, which I adjust based on the first. I'm not trying to get high, though, just get safely to sleep with no breathing issues.
