[pe...] Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 The only ativan liquid I can get is made with propylene glycol and glycerol Its 5ml to 1mg thats a lot of propylene glycol considering that i am on 1.65 a day of atvivan. I have read that propylene glycol is CNS depressant. What are others using seems like the only solvent with ethanol that can be used to make a solution which both bring about their own problems.

BTW, I used Rx liquid V formulated with PG for my 2 year taper...never had any ill effects from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[pe...] Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Builder did you find that it was hard to draw from the bottle as bubbles form a lot in syringe. Did you mix it with water for micro tapering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you mix it with water for micro tapering. Yes, I diluted with water. Usually 9:1 (10% solution) If you submerge the tip of the syringe in the liquid, then however much you pull the plunger, that's how much liquid will be in the syringe. There will often be a bubble (actually and air gap) in front of the plunger, but there will be an equal amount of liquid in the tip. Just basic physics. Don't fret about the details. Consistency is more important than accuracy. Just do it the same way each day, anbd you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
