Opinions - How safe combining these 2

[deekyleeky]

SWIM want to know if it's safe to combine tramadol with benzos. I heard it's not 100% safe, also I don't understand why it wouldn't be, if someone could explain because some benzos are actually used to treat seizures. I'm not talking about being safe as far as respiratory depression, im talking about seizures. Thanks

benzos and opiates is a great combo....be careful tho

As far as Swibf remembers the respitory bizsnatch and general depressant effects will be enhanced by the two. Though it is a manageable interaction, benzos tend to be combined with the methadone/bupe addiction treatments (depending on Swiy's locale).

To the siezure line of questioning? No, short of spontaneously being stricken with epilepsy or severe withdrawals. There isn't the slightest worry of suffering from one.

Swim has read combining Tramadol with Valium aka Diazepam is bad, and can increase chances of seizure.

Swim has mixing tramadol with lorazepam. Crazy CNS sedation, and increased nodding (but less chances of waking from a nod and instead falling asleep, and memory problems take over as negatives)

Mixing the two will greatly increase physical sedation. Only do so if safe and experienced.
