Benzos to combat hypertension/fast heartbeat from "non-true stimulants" (K, DXM,2c-b)
I'm wondering whether or not certain benzodiazepines, that would have any combination of anxiolytic, muscle relaxant, and/or anti-convulsant properties, (ie. diazepam, clonazepam, lorazepam) could have therapeutic value in low doses in an effort to combat increased heart rate and blood pressure caused by drugs that arent necesarily "true" stimulants, but have stimulating properties, ie. DXM, Ketamine, LSD, 2c-b, etc, etc.
Due to a disease known as Pulmonary Hypertension, (high blood pressure in the lungs and pulmonary artery that cause an increased workload on the heart and enlarged heart muscle) which a very close friend of mine suffers from, she can not EVER use chemicals like coke, meth, speed, ritalin, ecstacy, b/c they have been told by their doctor when they were diagnosed that drugs like these could kill them instantly.
However, she has experimented with LSD and DXM numerous times, and Ketamine once, without any known or experienced complication. She is interested in experimenting with Ketamine more, as well as 2c-B which she has never tried, meanwhile both of these are known to cause increased heart rate and blood pressure (that isn't dangerous to normal people at recommended dosages.. and higher K doses actually slow the heart and lower blood pressure).
I'm not sure if she should even experiment with these substances, but she will do what she wants anway, so I'm trying to take a harm-reduction approach, and I'd like to think/hope that a maybe a low/therapeutic dose of a benzodiazepine with the properties I listed above might be able to help the heart rate and blood pressure effects, without taking away too much from the subjective psychedelic experience. I know that benzos are used to actually terminate some psychedelic experiences if they turned negative, so she is unsure about trying this. Any help?
