Phanazepam induces relaxation, and the relief of tension and anxiety. Other effects include drowsiness, light-headedness, loss of coordination, confusion & forgetfulness, hiccups. Reports suggest Phenazepam is approximately five times stronger than Valium (another well known benzodiazepine).
Overdose - there is the potential for users to re-dose before the onset of the effects of the original dose, as effects do not reach their peak until 2 to 3 hours after an oral dose has been taken, this significantly increases the risk of overdose. This risk further increases if combined with other drugs and / or Alcohol. Accidents are a risk whilst under the influence. May be mis-sold or mistaken for other Benzodiazepines such as Valium so users will be unaware of the stronger effects and associated risks.
