A friend of mine told me that Librium would help me to get clean.
Now I know that many years ago when I was in a clinic for withdrawal they put me on librium but I cannot remember whether it was good , bad or indifferent. I was on so many other things at the same time. Does anyone here have any info. on Librium and if it would help?
Pete is this the same pete which alcohol probs etc - if so librium is used to ease you whilst you detox from alchol it is a form of diazepam it is not a cure just an assisted med for detox - same as subutex - assisted med for detox - librium are also addictive thats why you got it in a clinic - they wouldnt give you a script of it being an alcoholic.

Librium is a drug by the name of Chlordiazepoxide and possesses sedative, hypnotic, anxiolytic and muscle relaxant properties.
It is not actually in the diazepam (valium) family but has similar effects in some ways.
May be useful in the alleviation of alcohol withdrawal syndromes, although drug dependence may result, substituting for alcohol dependence.
Ask a doctor if you are interested in knowing more.

Chlordiazepoxide, or Librium, is the oldest of the benzo's, having been approved in the country for anxiety, and as an aid in alcohol withdrawal, in the late 1950's. It is addictive as all benzo'z are, but if taken for a short duration, like during withdrawal you should be ok. Just don't keep taking it for a longer period for you will develop tolerance, addiction, etc..They are hell to get off of if you ever get heavily addicted to them, so be careful-good luck!

Thanks for the question-
