Talk:Nitrazepam

message: This article is awful.
It is extremely biased against the use of benzo's.
Additionally the writing quality is awful, it's a mish mash of stuff that has been pasted from various sources. The article does not read well and the accuracy of the info is suspect.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.8.5.152 (talk) 14:39, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Schedule in USA

message: I beleive that on most benzodiazepine dose comparison charts Nitrazepam is as potent as Diazepam however, I have been using these for years and my opinion is that Nitrazepam is stronger. Not twice as strong but I would say a 5MG Tablet of Nitrazepam is as sedating as about 7.5-8MGs of Diazepam. Also all of the other effects such as anxiolytic and myorelaxant and amnesic properties of Nitrazepam are slightly superior to that of Diazepam with one exeption the muscle relaxant effect of Diazepam may be superior.

thread_title: Dosings and strength

message: NITRAZEPAM: this drug can, possibly more so, in patient's with a psychiatric disorder, find it stimulating {awake for 2-3 days, until the drug is finished}. Often a great energy is felt, and over-exercise can result. Feelings of cleptomania, anger, the care-less, abusive, self-destructive haze, make the person & those around them highly vulnerable. 
This is followed by a deep somnolence, which on awakening leaves a 'sickening rage' which is truly terrifying. 
Stronger than diazepam, as it is different. Possibly a rare reaction, but one that does exist. Highly abusable, and one of the most dangerous drugs I have encountered.

thread_title: PARADOXICAL NITRAZEPAM EFFECTS & HANGOVER

message: The wiki article seems to have been written by someone with a pathological hatred of benzodiazepines. The reported links between these drugs and cancer are not established by any proper trials, and moreover there is no mention of potential causative biomechanisms. While the drug is rightly restricted, given the long term effects of benzodiazepine use, nitrazepam would appear clinically to be no worse or better given its pharamacodynamics. The article requires complete rewriting, preferably by someone with unbiased medical knowledge.120.148.2.96 (talk) 08:42, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Bias

message: There's a good amount of information and primary sources here, although I don't know enough about the subject to comment on their quality and thoroughness. However, it's a nightmare as far as clarity, grammar, and sentence structure are concerned. I'm picking my way through it, but this article seriously needs some love in the form of revision and editing.
On that note, this article absolutely does not deserve the B rating that it has in the Pharmacology Project. Hopefully someone will change that.
