Can I Use Diazepam Together With Hydrocodone?

default
Posted on Wed, 30 Apr 2014
Question: Will there be a deleterious reaction if I take a 5mg Diazepam and a NORCO 5-325MG? I took the NORCO about 5 hours ago and I have trouble sleeping. I would like to wake up in the morning, so should I take the Valium? Thank you, XXXXXXX

Brief Answer: Take half dose in case of trouble sleeping Detailed Answer: Hi Thanks for using healthcare magic. I, Dr Abhishek Kapoor, would help you in this query. Using diazepam together with Hydrocodone may increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating. Some people may also experience some impairment in thinking and judgment. Better to avoid valium. In case, you have difficulty in getting sleep, you can take half dose of valium 5mg. In case, you need further help, you can ask. Regards Dr. Abhishek Kapoor Psychiatrist
