Are there any adverse interactions with piracetam and benzos? I'm currently taking klonopin to help treat a dyskinesia and anxiety.

and on a similar topic, any interactions between benzos and vitamin b6 at a dose of 400mg or vitamin e?

I took Keppra along with Ativan and had no adverse reactions. I'm sure you'd be safe with Piracetam and benzodiazapines.
Have you ever taken Keppra?

Keppra you need a prescription for I believe. Piracetam you don't but from what I understand, the companies selling it in the USA get their stuff from who knows where in China, which makes me nervous about buying it off of amazon.

A study shows Keppra as effective for treating tardive dyskenesia:

I would be nervous of getting Piracetam online.
