Default Where are Benzodiazepines derived from?(read details)? - 12-18-2008, 10:33 AM
I've always wondered how Benzodiazepines come from like Valium, Xanax, Ativan, and Klonopin.It's no big secret where Opiates like Codeine, Morphine, Heroin, Hydromorphone (Dilaudid), Oxycodone (Percodan), Oxymorphone (Numorphan), Hydrocodone (Vicodin), Meperidine (Demerol), Fentanyl, Methadone (Dolophine), Darvon, Talwin come from. We all know they come from Opium which comes from the poppy plant. I know all these pills are made by chemical synthesis but there are derived from the poppy flower. Is Benzos completely man made or is there a certain plant that they come from too?
