Can these make you vomit? I was up last night being sick, I have only taken 2 since Friday.

What are your experiences with them? Thanks.x

I have never had sickness as a side effect either, and 2 isn't very many. Did your diazepam come with the sheet which explains the side effects ?. i had a quick look on the net and sickness isn't down as a side effect.

Like vivien says, i would see your doctor

I just looked online and a side affect is vomiting but as you say 2 is not that many, I will call my Pdoc tomorrow.

I spoke with the crisis team yesterday when they came out to visit me and they confirmed that they can make you sick.

She told me to break the tablet in half (I am on 5mg) so will do that.x
