help taking tramadol after a night of adderall and valium

[applescherrys88]

Hi I'm a new member of this site, though I have used it for a long time before that whenever I had prior curiosities but after spending searching the web I can't find help for my current question so I decided to join as BL has always given me the best info in the past.

So here is my situation, I am about 5'2" 105 lbs female. I have always enjoyed opiates, I have tried other drugs but always come back to opiates. But I have recently been introduced to adderall only because I live in a new state and its the only thing I can find. After a lot of research from this site I decided to try it. I have done it a handful of times only.

So here is my question, yesterday I took adderall I only intended to take 1-2 30 mg pills throughout the day, but right when i was about to come down I found out I had to spend the evening with my sister in law who doesn't like me at all so there is no way I was going to be able to come down around her. This led to make taking 2 more of t the 30mg pills split in half and spread out. The last I took was 1/4 a pill at about 3am. At about 6:30 am I took 10mgs of valium to help the comedown. I tried to sleep but only got about 2 hours of sleep. At 1:50 pm I took 50mgs of tramadol then another an hour later and one more an hour after that. I'm still not feeling super and I know I need sleep but I wont be able to get any till late tonight I have much I need to do and what I'm wondering is would it be beneficial to take some more adderall to get me through the rest of the day and night, would that even be safe? I don't want to mix anything that could be harmful but I do want to feel better. Or should I just take another tramadol? I plan on taking valium again later tonight to help get me to sleep. I was just hoping someone had ideas on this or experience and could share it with me. I also don't know if what I took last night could be interacting with what I took today, or if what I feel is just the come down. Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you so much for your time.

The valium and tramadol should take the edge of the comedown. Amphetamines and tramadol together is a dangerous combination because they both decrease the seizure threshold. You shouldn't dose amps now you're on tramadol.

What I'd do is take more tramadol and the valium tonight. I'm assuming you have tolerance to both and know your limits with the substances in question? While CNS depression is not that much of an issue with tramadol as with 'real' opiates/oids, mixing it with benzos can still be risky.

Definitely avoid amps today though.

Thank you so much for the quick reply. Yes I do have tolerance to tramadol but I don't take valium that often, only when having sleep issues or after adderall usually and I have only ever had 5-10mgs when I do take it as I did not know what a safe dose was after taking adderall or how long to wait after last dose of adderall so I just tried to stay on the safe side. I actually spent quite a bit of time last night trying to find a post that could help me with that but most had different factors that changed it. Would drinking some coffee or something with caffeine help me at this point or would it make me feel worse? Adderall is the only one I really worry about mixing with things as I don't know that much about it despite all the research I have done on it before my first time trying it. That is why I am so thankful to this site. Do you have any other ideas that are helpful that I'm not thinking about? Thank you so much for your response, you saved me from making a big mistake!

In my opinion for the cocktail you are on could become dangerous by adding more to it. What I would suggest is trying to just make it through the day as best you can without dosing further. Some coffee would be alright in moderation, but try to stay well hydrated and eat as well.

Then tonight when you are ready to crash, a little Valium to take the edge off, but I would still not advising taking anymore tramadol as it is a more stimulating opioid to an extent and might make it harder to sleep not to mention riskier.

Hope that helps, and welcome to bL.

Thank you for the welcome. I only wanted something to bring me out of this funk as I have to take care of my 2 small children and its not fair to them that mommy screwed up last night. I want to be able to play with them but its a struggle. I agree with you though I don't want to take more, I think I have taken plenty of pills the last day and a half. Though the tramadol is not giving me a "high" at this point it is just making things bearable. How much valium do you think is safe to take for help sleeping? I took 10mgs last night which didn't help me sleep too much but did help me relax although that was probably the adderalls fault. The last tramadol I took was about 5 hours ago, do you think it would be ok to take one then in about 5-6 hours take the valium? My kids have a tendency to stay up late and my husband already fell asleep so I can't poop out on them. Or is that too much and I should just try and suck it up as best I can? Thanks so much for your advice it means a lot to me that you took the time to help me.

Adding 50mg tramadol now is perfectly safe. 200mg is a safe dose, especially for someone with tolerance. Don't overdo it with the diazepam though. The less you need the better obviously. Keep in mind that if you don't get the dose right at first you can always add small amounts (~5mg) after waiting ~30mins for the effects. This way you can make sure you don't take more than you really need.

Because you aren't tolerant to both Valium and tramadol dosing them together should be avoided. However if you space them out as described and keep the doses low you should be alright. I have a tendency to always give advice that goes towards the side of caution, as it's better to be safe than sorry.

Thank you both so very much! all your advice is really appreciated and very helpful. bronson completely agree with you, I'm pretty cautious myself I hate to feel too messed up and not in control which is why I came here for advice before doing anything more. Heck I can't even smoke weed because I can't stand the way it makes me feel so I like cautious advice. PillToChill that is the perfect idea, not sure why I was looking for an exact dosage when I can figure out the right one on my own, I feel kinda stupid now haha. But honesty thank you very much.
