No shit, we all get it. Obviously you insert the valium into the dog’s rectum and then transfer it orally to the human patient. I’m not sure where the confusion is coming in either.

@Bob Ducca:  
Thank you for inducing the triple whammy of nearly spewing my coffee over my monitor, laughing so hard I had to pee, and then making me chortle like a maniac at the urinal when in a moment of crystalline clarity I finally realized why Paris Hilton and her ilk have been carrying around dogs in handbags all these years; companionship, lip gloss and anti-anxiety, a trifecta of happiness!

Administering it anally is the most effective, quickest way to get it into the system of a dog having seizures. I realize it’s a lot of fun to make jokes about administering “dog” valium anally to a human, but it’s not the delivery method that would be used. It’s striking me as pretty juvenile and ignorant to go on like it is.

Hope no one here searches on “plugging”, some drugs have a higher bioavailability when administered anally.

EDIT:Apparently diazepam has a higher BA when taken orally, 100%! You lose ten percent going anal.

It’s used in dogs as an intra-ictal anticonvulsant. Difficult to pill a seizing dog.

Ya…try impossible. Scary shit… although you do get kinda used to it. Completely freaked out my poker game. He had big fat gran mals, too, peed himself, foamed at the mouth, smashed into things if I didn’t make sure to buffer his body… then he’d come to and stumble and be a mess. And guaranteed he’d seize again within 12 hours.

My poor baby. And it was his seizure meds that killed him when he was only 5 years old. Not the valium, potassium bromide we’d added to the phenobarbs because he was getting worse. Developed pulmonary edema… I spent about 7 hours straight holding an oxygen mask to his face trying to keep him alive. Absolutely without a doubt one of the worst days of my life, if not the worst…

I know, I was just saying why it would be illogical for a human to take it in that fashion.

Depends what the desired effect is. Per rectum the total amount absorbed may be lower (by ten percent) but the rate of absorption is lightning fast. And for the end-user, that may be desirable.

Heh. End user.

You don’t get to keep calling the situation or people creepy if you are voluntarily welcoming them into your life.

You know what most people do when other people creep them out? We don’t invite them into our homes. We don’t drive around the neighborhood searching for them. If you welcome the crazy, you lose the ability to whine about it without judgement and mockery.
