Best. Thread. Ever.

**Stoid** , you sound like some of my closest and dearest friends.  
It is good to know that you have male roommates who (one assumes) will defend you if you need defending, but it is heartening to know that non-judgemental folks like you still exist.

Please keep us informed on the further developments in this saga.

What exactly are you so freaked out about? It’s not as though there’s special “dogs-only” Valium that will kill humans or something. It’s exactly the same drug as people take.

Ever heard of wine enemas? Very effective, I’ve heard. Never tried it myself.

Sure will, although I sincerely hope there aren’t any.

I’ve seen some awful stuff in my life. I’ve been beside myself, screaming and hysterical, unable to catch my breath, full on crazy pants emotional meltdown.

I have _never_ for even a moment considered borrowing my friend’s dog’s tranqs and _shoving them up my assshole._

Well I should hope you wouldn’t “borrow” them… how could you give them back after you’d used them?:eek:

I realize it’s fun to find things to freak out about, but suppositories? Really? :dubious: All kinds of medications are available as both liquid and solid suppositories, including acetaminophen, thorazine, antibiotics, malaria treatments, etc. All _shoved up the asshole_! Wheeeeeeee…

Strange. There’s a poster in my vet’s office warning not to give human meds to animals, though admittedly they are silent on the reverse. Still, what would a veterinarian know about anything?

They are trying to stop people from assuming that anything a human can take safely a dog or cat can as well, when that isn’t the case. Ibuprofen is poisonous to dogs. Hell, so is chocolate!

You just don’t go to the right parties.

Doc, these tranquilizers aren’t working at all.  
Are you using them correctly?  
Of course I am, what do you think I’ve been doing, shoving them up my ass?

Maybe they are thinking of woofies.

To people that use drugs regularly - that was being kind. And the police knew it which is why they looked the other way.

It isn’t like drug users are looking for Lab Reports with their drugs. If they are willing to abuse benzos - it doesn’t matter where they come from. As long as the syringe hasn’t been used already 🙂

This is cause it is a good rule of thumb and people shouldn’t be doing this anyway.

The drugs for dogs are not special. I doubt that the diazepam you get for dogs is any less safe than say - counterfeit Valium you can get from India. It’s probably even made in the same factories. You’d have to be sure about the doses, but it isn’t like drug a users aren’t willing to take risks.

And your “information” is coming from where, exactly? [Drugs prescribed and dispensed by licensed veterinarians are regulated by the FDA, exactly as drugs for people are.](http://www.petplace.com/drug-library/diazepam-valium/page1.aspx) And as you can see from the link, the use of diazepam to treat epilepsy in dogs is “extra-label”: so there isn’t any such thing as diazepam formulated for canines at all- all diazepam prescribed to dogs is created for humans.

And on that note…

[What](http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a605033.html) exactly is it you thought I was [joking](http://www.drugs.com/pro/diazepam-rectal-gel.html) [about](http://www.epinet.org.au/downloads/File/Epilepsy%20Support%20Package/Use%20of%20Rectal%20Valium.pdf)?
