A generic for Centrax - I think it is also available under the brand name Verstran? Does anyone else have more information on this drug? ## Quick question. I used to take xanax to calm down and it worked magic. Tried prazepam 10 mg tonight for the first time. 1 did not work so I took 1 more, yet that still does not seem to do it. If anyone is familiar with it could you advise whether 1 more would do it or if it can be mixed with herbal sleeping pills safely? I need to be up for work in 5 hours, so would also like to know when is the safe deadline to take it without feeling drowsy the next day? ## I would not suggest taking more than prescribed, due to the risk of possible overdose. The NIH warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, suc...

It is Vestran (prazepam). It is a strong anxiety medication with a higher percentage of becoming dependent than Valuum, Xanax, or klonopin. Be VERY careful and do not take somebody elseso medication. Those people are called "addicts". If you are doing this, most all insurances cover rehab. Best of luck in your future.

Hello. I use prazepam every evening 10mg since 16 years to treat my partial epilepsy (they found I had it at last when I was 30!!!) for 26 years now and to treat some feelings of fear built up during a hard life. It is a low dose. I do not like high doses and it works fine. Now I moved to a country where I want to avoid going to a doctor who prescribes this and charge a fortune for it plus all the explanations I need to give etc. So here so a pharmacist told me about hydroxyzine tablets with a little valium in it will do the same for me. All my life I do not drink nor smoke nor use anything "wrong." I live healthy and exercise a lot. Please advise me now as I am running out of prazepam, if this can be ok for me to try? Thanks so much. ## Hello, Caro! How are you? There is no Val...

round and blueish green ## Though they are often thought to be the same as Valium, Centrax tablets actually contain a different benzodiazepine called Prazepam, it is used to treat anxiety, nervous disorders, seizures, for sedation and as a muscle relaxant. Similar to other drugs in this class, it may also be habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, fatigue and lethargy. Of interest to note is that this one is known to cause fewer occurrences of the side effects than its relatives. Learn more Prazepam details here. Are there any comments or questions?

Im on co-diovan 160 and bilocor 5mg twice a day + trepelene 25mg. My docter prescribed demetrin 10mg twice a day. I want to know if it is safe to use all these medications together. ## I haven't found any interaction information on Demetrin (Prazepam), but as far as the others go, there are potentially unsafe interactions found between all of your medications. Quoted below are the precautions you should be aware of: The following applies to: Trepiline (amitriptyline) and Co-diovan (valsartan + hydrochlorothiazide)… "Hydrochlorothiazide and amitriptyline may have additive effects in lowering your blood pressure. You may experience headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, and/or changes in pulse or heart rate. These side effects are most likely to be seen ...

Can taking antidepressants & sleeping tablets together cause memory loss? I am on tablets for epilespy as well! ## I need information about Centrax tablets ## I need patient information leaflet about Centrax ## i need centrax ## Centrax contains the active ingredient Prazepam, this is actually a Benzodiazepine, commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. Since one of its side effects is drowsiness, some doctors will use it to treat insomnia, as well, however, it IS NOT in and of itself a sleeping pill! That said, yes, Benzodiazepines can cause memory loss and some forms of amnesia, as well as headaches and irriatbility. You can read more here: Is there anything else I can help you with?

Prazepam is not sold here in the United States due to special qualities it has that are basically a threat to PROFITS here in the United States and anywhere else where it's special properties are known. I used it very successfully in 1990 but then it went off the market and I am looking for a way to buy it through another country, hopefully not from Mexico - somewhere in Europe hopefully. I lived in Holland three years and would like to get it from there; or from anywhere! I have also lived in Portugal, Spain, Greece, France, England, Honduras and Brazil and would be happy with any of these. Please help, whether you know of the medicine's special properties or not. I cannot discuss them here! Thank You for any help ## Prazepam is a Benzodiazepine and, regardless of what you thin...
