Curious what dosages of these caused you to "almost die". There should be minimal interaction between a single therapeutic dose of both at once (its not uncommon to be prescribed both at once), but if you were taking very high "recreational" doses, that is something else.
- Nursie 11y agoNot much of either, maybe 20mg codeine and 2mg etizolam (thieno- I know, but same class of drug, roughly equivalent to 20mg valium). To complete the picture I think I'd had a glass of wine as well. I was ill with a nasty cold and trying to relax myself and have a good night's sleep. I realise now that this combination of three CNS depressants is not good. I went to bed, and woke up gasping for breath several times, eventually having to prop myself up on some pillows and try to stay awake so I could keep breathing. It was pretty hellish.
