In reply to Phenobarbital Withdrawal, posted by ajax1 on August 18, 2011, at 10:33:00
> Hello all
> I've cut down a longtime Xanax use to 20mg Valium and dropped down to 10 Valium. I've now been using 90mg phenobarbital a day, for 12 days to get off the final bit of Valium. It should work from all my research. My question is, after 12 days of low pheno use, will I have w/d from that.
> Thanksaj1,
I am unsure as to what is all involved in our situation. If you could post answers to te following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
A. What is {longtime} xanax use?
B. Is the phenobarbital prescribed?
C. If so, what are the directions from the prescriber if they are different from what you are doing.
D. What research advocates the use phenobarbital to use in withdrawal from BZDs?
E. Are you aware that phenobarbital can cause death in withdrawal from it?
F. If you stop the phenobarbital, and withdrawal synptoms appear, could they be from the pheno or the Xanax?
