Hey, this is my first post to bluelight but I have been a long time reader. Anyways...I was wondering if anybody has had any experience with the benzodiazepine Imovane. How did the effects compare to the other benzodiazepines? Any input would be helpful....thanks
 
I was prescribed on imovane for a period when i couldnt sleep no matter what i did - i normally sleep fine but at that time it was plain impossible. one would just totally knock me out within about one hour of injestion. but then i again it was me taking them so those extreme effects were probably quite psychosomatic (i always overreact to chemicals - like the time i felt really high of a sulpiride cap lol)

It's not a benzodiazepine, nor is it related. Works sorta similarly, but its an entirely different kind of chemical.
 
I have it prescribed for when I need to sleep on weekends when other people are home during the day (I work graveyard shift in tech support)
. It's pretty damn effective. One pill has strong sedating effects. By the way, it's not a benzodiazepine, it's a piperazine. However, it works on the same receptors.
 
I believe it's a hypnotic, like ambien, never used it myself, but I know it's less potent... it's what they gave patient before ambien..
it definately works tho, most people can hit the ground in 1 tab
my first time using ambien 10mg and the IMs on my screen were melting and my sheets were turning into animals eating each other(after pill 2) now I need 40mg ambien just to get a little effect.

Imovane is not the same thing as Ambien, I believe it's actually more potent. Anyway my experiences with Imovane have been pretty good. It is a VERY effetive sleeping aid and a mild to medium halucinant if you avoid sleep. Anything over 7.5mg is good, 15mg is good though might be too much for a first time, mabye a LITTLE less. The visuals you get are not like gravol type visuals but more 'colorful' and much smaller stuff happening which you kind of have to look for. Best thing to do on this drug is look at the carpet on about 15mg, DO NOT GO OUTSIDE on this drug and for the LOVE OF GOD, do not drive. This drug makes you a zombie like benzos do but besides that it also makes you hallucinate so your in for double zombification when your on it. It leaves a bad aftertaste in your mouth the next day so make sure your not too hungry because food will taste like shit and so will everything you drink.]
 
how much

I get no effect from 22.5 mg of this drug. Can I take any more without hurting myself? If so how much?
