I don’t want to become addicted... so here is my plan! 5mg once every 3 days... will this approach work to prevent addiction and tolerance? In other words I took my pill today 6/28/2014 my next pill won’t be till 7/1/2014 please let me know all suggestions are welcome thank you! cheesygrin

    Hi Miguel.I cant see one 5mg Valuim working for anxiety twice  a week.It should work on the day you take it but its not made to last 3 days at atime.And yes even only twice a week you can become addicted.Maybe someone else can add to this.Regards.John

      Someone told me if I take it less it won't become an issue being that it's such a low dose (5mg).. I'm a big guy 280lb 6'3"

    Hi Miguel.Valuim has a long halflife.Rather than me giving you suggestions as i dont know all there is to know. There is a place you can go and get all the info on these you need.Just type in Proffeser Ashton,she is retired now but the website is still there.This should help you with anything you need advice on.Let me know how you make out.Regards.John

      Thank you yes i looked at it. But I did not tell me much of what I’m really looking for. I understand Benzos are addicting but I just don’t want the 5mg to loose effectiveness I don’t use them for recreation there for they should not loose potency right? Or wrong? And I also don’t want to become addicted... People have different opinions about valium some say it’s not that bad and others say stay away! But I’m guessing these people were abusing it at high doses.. I’m 280lb and 6'3" 5mg it should not do much to me I’m guessing and I’m an active person (JOGGING) so the drug should leave me faster than usual because I’ll be releasing toxins not giving it time to build in my blood.. What do you think?

    Hi Miguel.I guess if it isnt broken dont fix it.In other words if you feel alright the way you are taking it then all is good.Running releses natural endorphines which will also help.Other than that if you dont see a problem,do what youre doing.Im sure you know if you type in benzos on youre computer there is all kinds of sites you can check.Whising You What Youre Looking For,John
