Why would a person need to take liquid valium insteas of tablet valium?

[Glenn L]

I take 10mg Valium tablets for my Crohn's and rectal pain. I herd that there was liquid Valium ........ so i thought, could i dissolve my 10mg tablets in water and inject it the same way you do with the actual liquid Valium. Reason i ask this because my pain is quite bad and just taking it with water orally takes quite a while for it to kick in and help me ( sometimes i just eat them) . This is why ask if it can be injected so i can releive my pain at a more rapid pace. Would this be harmfull
( And yes i fully know Valium is highly addictive I've been over it with my doctor already) and also it would be appreciated if you would list your sources , and if this turns out to be done were would i inject myself ??? stomach, muscle???

Also i mentioned in my ? that i have chewed them up once or twice ( plain no water ) is this bad ..... Also technically i don't take them for pain , i take them because my pain is so bad im always in a rude and cranky

DO NOT CRUSH THE TABLETS AND INJECT THEM!!!!!!

Yes you can get it in liquid form FOR INJECTIONS ONLY. And only performed by trained medical people because it is IV and depresses the breathinbg rapidily.
It also BURNS THE VEINS causing EXTREME PAIN while injected.

You can also get it in rectal suppostories.

If you really need to get the Valium to work quicker, but not as fast as IV, then crush them and put them in a teaspoon of strawberry jam (jelly).
They still have to be ingested and go through the blood stream by the gut.

If these muscle relaxants are not working for you you need to go to the Doctor or Gastroenterologist and discuss a more adequate medication for you.
There are other way more potent, but still safe, medications out there.

i think you need something different for pain than valium . something stronger if your pain is that bad that you are ready to resort to injections , they have pain medication that is fast acting , ie: disolves under tounge , drops . just my opinion and i dont know all the facts of your medical situation,i am no expert or anything juxt your avg gal concerned you are wanting to inject your self to get rid of pain .....ask your doctor for a medication that will give you releif fast

NO ! You Can NOT Inject the tabs no matter what you do to them! I have heard of people who would crush them up and snort them because they work in a matter of seconds that way, But I DO NOT recommend taking them any way other then how they were meant to be taken. If you need some thing to keep away the crabbies , Why dont you try some Weed? It is non addictive and you wont stop your heart trying to inject it
