sublingual Valium: Do you lose active metabolites?

[Anon54]

Obviously the diazepam would get into ya blood
what about the metabolites though. nordiazapam, temazepam, oxazepam.

if u took codeine sublingually it wouldnt turn to morphine. it has to go though the liver. just wondering if its the same case with valium

I ask because i took 50mg diaz today & feel practically nothing.
i alwats remeber when i heald it in my mount it SEEMED stronger. but misght have been placebo

 

[hydroazuanacaine]

it is still metabolized. just hits the blood-brain barrier before the liver.

^This.

If you want to get the best of quicker onset of action and diazepam's long half life (due to active metabolites), then sublingually administer half your dose, and then orally administer the other half.

Double useful, I'm on a taper and even if its purely placebo its good to know I'm getting the best outs my dose.

Many Thanks
