Combinations - Exponential potentiation of Benzos with Gabapentin

[soma]

Swim normally requires something asinine like 15mg of lorazepam to get high, but recently he was rx'ed 60 diazepam 10's and 180 gabapentin 800mg (he has chronic pain, also rx'ed lots of hydrocodone), and took 20mg of diazepam (NOTHING for Swim) and 1600mg Gabapentin (his rx'ed dose), and noticed in an hour or so, he felt a HUGE benzo buzz. His coordination was off, he thought "I'm not cornering so well" LOL. Normally only barbituates or carisoprodol produce coordination issues like that. SWIM has also taken gabapentin for almost a year now, w/o diazepam or other benzos. SO, long story short, benzos + gabapentin = 5x the dose of benzos + some carisoprodol. It was a wonderful find, since no doctor will complain about rx'ing gabapentin for just about anything (migraines, seizures, pain, shingles, etc).
