PG with Diazepam intake

[MP2012]

I was wondering if anyone knew if using a predominately PG liquid whilst being prescribed Diazepam (valium) can produce adverse affects?
Since I started vaping 20 days ago, I have noticed myself feeling overly tired and falling asleep a lot during the day. I'm about to buy new juices tomorrow and have been thinking about try an all VG juice to see if that makes a difference. Thoughts on this very welcomed.
Which reminds me, if anyone has recommendations for buying VG juice in the UK that would be appreciated. I have seen the list chrissie sends out but a personal recommendation is always appreciated.

I take Klonopin and notice no adverse effects. It's not Diazepam, but Clonazepam. But same family of drugs; Benzodiazepine. Ask your Dr. to be sure, but I think you're fine. Try VG, though.


I'm not a doctor.

I do not take any sort of benzo meds, however, for the first month or so after beginning vaping, I was very, very tired most of the time. Methinks it has more to do with detoxing from the nasties than anything else.

Could you send me some and I'll report back ;-)

I used to take valium Not a doctor or anything remotely near it. Do think the Tiger lady is on to something. Maybe after the detoxing or durring the medication is hitting you a little stronger. You may want to call your doc and see. It could also be not having as much nicotine in your system as well.

firstly, I am not a doctor. This is based on my own experience. I have taken the med that you are talking about and have this to say. I do not believe that taking the med with pg causes the problem. It is possible that the pg is causing the problem by itself. I have had problems similar with additions, ie sore throat, fever, serious phlegm issue to the point of being unable to swallow. My throat was so swollen. This is because I and many others are allergic to pg. I use high vg up to 100% vg vaping juices. Also, no matter what you vape, you MUST drink tons of water. I preach to myself. I hate water and I do not drink enough. Whenever this happens, I have serious problems.

There are quite a few vendors that can do high vg (80%) but I am familiar with U.S. I do know that AIV has a shop that they sell out of in the UK. I am not sure of others, but feel confident that there are many. I hope this helps. Not trying to sell my favorite vendor or anything here, just trying to help out a fellow vaper.


Please feel free to PM me if I can help further.

Not a doctor here either, but propylene glycol is a solvent in which diazepam is often dissolved for use in an IV, since diazepam isn't soluble in water. If you're reacting to either ingredient, you should, of course, identify what you're sensitive to, but an interaction between the two components shouldn't be a concern.
