Benzo withdrawal comin, now what?

w/ the diazepam you can also potentiate with white grapefruit juice, cimetidine, omperazole, etc.. Basically anything that inhibits liver enzyme CYP3a4 will do the trick.

that could be a blessing to help you stretch out the already prolonged half life of the diazepam. drink a glass of WGFJ 30 mins b4 the diazepam, some also recommend taking a few tums right after so your stomach isn't so acidic when u take the diazepam.

However, CYP3a4 is important in the metabolism of MANY drugs. So if you are taking anything besides the benzos make sure you look up possible bad reactions by inhibiting 3a4. I also wouldn't recommend doing it for a prolonged period of time. But every few days shouldn't be too bad.

stay safe! And remeber, BL is here to help you and prevent harm; There's plenty of folkson here who've done Benzo WD's before and I sure some of them could help you make a plan to taper your dosage downawrds slowly and safely.
