Hi, I have taken it several times to help with long appointments. It made me not care and just on the verge of sleep. The assistant called my pdoc to check with any conflicts with other medications I take. I take ambien for sleep and depakote for bp2. Basically he warned the dentist that I will metabolize it quickly, so no to be surprised if it wears off faster than usual. Which it did.
I do not have a problem going to the dentist, but I do have a problem with pain. I now tell the dentist and staff that, even though they try to be conservative with their use of medication, (which I appreciate) to give me the most right away.
