What is the most important information I should know about triazolam?
•
Triazolam is a benzodiazepine medicine. Taking benzodiazepines with
opioid medicines, alcohol,
or other central nervous system (CNS) depressants (including street
drugs) can cause severe
drowsiness, breathing problems (respiratory depression), coma and
death. Get emergency help
right away if any of the following happens:
•
shallow or slowed breathing
•
breathing stops (which may lead to the heart stopping)
•
excessive sleepiness (sedation)
Do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how taking
triazolam with
opioids affects you.
•
Risk of abuse, misuse, and addiction. There is a risk of abuse,
misuse, and addiction with
benzodiazepines, including triazolam which can lead to overdose and
serious side effects
including coma and death.
•
Serious side effects including coma and death have happened in people
who have abused
or misused benzodiazepines, including triazolam. These serious side
effects may also
include delirium, paranoia, suicidal thoughts or actions, seizures,
and difficulty breathing.
Call your healthcare provider or go to the nearest hospital emergency
room right away if
you get any of these serious side effects.
•
You can develop an addiction even if you take triazolam as prescribed
by your healthcare
provider.
•
Take triazolam exactly as your healthcare provider prescribed.
•
Do not share your triazolam with other people.
•
Keep triazolam in a safe place and away from children.
•
Physical dependence and withdrawal reactions. Triazolam can cause
physical dependence and
withdrawal reactions.
•
Do not suddenly stop taking triazolam. Stopping triazolam suddenly can
cause serious and
life-threatening side effects, including unusual movements, responses,
or expressions,
seizures, sudden and severe mental or nervous system changes,
