> Have you ever tried the hypnotic benzo Halcion? Mg for mg it is the strongest benzo around. I find that the conbination of halcion and ambien work great for sleep. I will also combine them with doxylamine succinate and clondine if Im having a really hard time sleeping.
That's extremely dangerous. Yes, I have multiple agents on board that happen to be sleep-inducing for most but I've been used to them and in general I metabolize a number of my medications very fast.
Halcion didn't get its bad reputation for nothing, it just certain people who reacted to it in a strange way though.
Combining it with three more CNS depressants (Ambien, Unisom [doxylamine formulation, stronger than benadryl], and clonidine) is what is known as "stacking".
Unless you're careful and you are under a doctor's order to take more than one, two, even three substances, there's a thing called respiratory depression (lung collapse). And one doesn't ever want to get there. I needn't describe it.
Anyhow, just my 2c
