Anything about Vallium?

Does anyone know anything about it. I know some of my friends take a few of them before parties because it heightens the effects of weed and alcohol.
Is this safe? I know it is an anti depressant. Does it make them happier or something, or maybe sadder? I know they arent perscribed it and i dont know where they get it from
they did say that you can go into a coma if you take more than about 8 or somehting. does anyone genuinly know how dangerous this drug is?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

All drugs are dangerous, which is why they are only given (legally) to people who need them. Like MANY drugs, Valium will increase dizziness and drowsiness when using alcohol, which is why that should be avoided. Valium is used to relieve anxiety, nervousness, and tension associated with anxiety disorders. It is also used to treat certain types of seizure disorders and muscle spasms. If you take this drug without these symptoms you are risking heart failure, especially if you know nothing about the drug. Symptoms of a Valium overdose are severe - they include sleepiness, dizziness, confusion, a slow heart beat, difficulty breathing, difficulty walking and talking, an appearance of being drunk, and unconsciousness. Alcohol may also increase the risk of having a seizure. To sum it up - not worth it. Get your friends help, don't risk it. They are playing with their own lives.
