Illicit Use of Diphenoxylate Hydrochloride to Prevent Narcotic Withdrawal Symptoms (original) (raw)

Drug Intelligence & Clinical Pharmacy, 1980

Abstract

Three of his patients received only 10 mg po; one received 25 mg po; and one, 50 mg po. The other two patients received injections — one of 25 mg im, and one of both 50 mg im and 50 mg iv. Since chlordiazepoxide is slowly and poorly absorbed intramuscularly,' all but one case could be considered within the usual dosage range. Our patient received triazolam 0.25 mg po, which is within the normal range for geriatric patients.
