Does Quinine potentiate diazepam/valium? Or hydroxizine? Cetirizine?

I can't find anything on quinine and valium!

Just want to know if drinking a pint of tonic water would help make the valium more euphoric or make it worse!

I know with codeine it works, as does hydroxizine (atarax) would that help?

I have 100mg valium. Mild tolerance, that amount would leave me fuzzy, functional but not euphoric.
The atarax doesn't sedate me (thats DEFINITELY not my aim)

I have:

Valerian
Zopiclone (Prob no go!)
Cinnarizine
Cetirizine
Hydroxizone hcl
Hyoscine hcl
Ant acids

I don't have GFjuice. Or beer.

I don't want to pass out, just want a small dose of something on top of the vals to make me more chilled and euphoric.
Would take the potentiator, then work my way up with the vals depending on how its going.

HELP PLEASE!
 
I sometimes pop a tagamet or zantac & for me it makes 4 a longer stronger buzz. Btw i take only 4mg of klonopin a day. Be careful...nothin worse or more humiliating than benzo amnesia

Haha, yeah, i've been there! Don't see the point when you just black out and wondered what you did!
Tagamet is prescription here so not available.
Never knew ranitidine could potentiate benzos, thats obv easy to get.

I don't even know what i get out of valium to be honest, maybe I shouldn't do it.
In then end took some valerian, tonic, hydroxizine (which should work similarly to cemetadine?) And 50mg vals. Did bugger all really, not even sedated or chilled. I dont take vals much but I binge on them rarely, took about 60 10mgs and some ativan in the last few days.

Saved myself the last five maybe for the morning, but would it even do anything after the last few days of taking more?
I usually swallow a few and then slip a couple under the tongue. I wonder if dissolving 5 in a bit of water and then gulping it down might give an instant hit? I dont plug hehe, and I would probably mess it up! Might go for codeine instead, that works better for me than valium on about 700mgs. Would ranitidine potentiate that? (About the ceiling dose being 4 or 500, i definitely get a better buzz off more than that!)

I usually pop a few atarax, some tonic and antacids, but doesnt seem to potentiate it much if at all.

I'm guessing you live in the U.K? As Cimetidine (Tagamet) is prescription only over here. Unfortunately even though Ranitidine (Zantac) is closely related to Cimetidine it has that certain something missing, so it does not actually act as a potentiator.

White Grapefruit juice works as a potentiator for most Benzos and White Grapefruit juice, Tonic water and a 1st generation antihistamine (Hydroxyzine, Promethazine, Diphenhydramine etc) work as potentiators for most Opiates. Aswell as antacids apparently.
 
the only thing ive ever heard of that potentiates benzos is grapefruit juice and neurontin. but you have to wait like 2 hours after taking the neurontin to take ur benzo. (cause if the neurontin isnt fully absorbed already it will decrease the BA of the benzo) and benzo potentiates neurontin which is fuckin wierd.. im prescribed xanax and neurontin and have used grapefruit juice as a potentiating agent many times. with xanax it is slightly noticeable, but with valium it is quite noticeable
 
what im wondering is how the hell an antacid could potentiate a benzo..

Just by basifying the stomach contents I think. Works well with codeine, morphine. off topic i have yet to find a good way to potentiate poppy pod tea/make it last lomger without eating all the grounds. My dose at 40g after a break gives me a great body buzz but only for the same time as codeine cwe. About two hours. Then gone. Ive added all sorts gf juice, citric acid, vinegar, tums you name it. Is it only by eating the grounds if lasts so long?
Theres not enough yoghurt in the fridge to consume 40gs of it and slurry makes me gag. Like the tea though!
 
Whenever I've taken quetiapine while on benzos, it seemed to kill all the pleasureable benzo effects. I'd still be 100% anxiety free, more than before adding it to the mix even. But it made me feel like a zombie without emotions, incapable of feeling good, just neutral. Do not recommend..

The only thing from which I've ever noticed any potentiation was white GFJ, the benzo in question was xanax. In theory it should, and it did seem to make the effects a little bit stronger. But the increase in potency was negligible. You might want to try this some time because there is the possibility that it might work better for you.

IMO benzo potentiators are a waste of time, there's very few, none really worthwhile.

If you take a psychoactive potentiator like the zopiclone you mentioned it might make the high more enjoyable, but it will be a different high entirely because of their synergy, which may not be what you're looking for. Do not recommend unless you really know what you're doing.
