In reply to 30mg Valium - O/D sx?.... how long out of system?, posted by ace on February 27, 2003, at 20:00:28
I believe the half-life of diazepam is pretty broad, 20-200 hours. As far as 30mg being an overdose? Nah, don't think so. According to most benzo equivalency charts (including the one given to me by my therapist), 30mg Valium is roughly equivalent to 3mg Xanax, 1.5mg Klonopin... hardly anything to be concerned about. I know several people who take single doses of 30mg+ of diazepam (prescribed). The symptoms you listed could very well be attributable to the higher dose. Once again, nothing to worry about.
