Has anyone else been prescribed this, it does absolutely nothing for me. Prescribed for DSL agitation.

This sounds like a thing that only your doctor will be able to address.

If you feel like this medication is doing "absolutely nothing" for you, that's a sure sign to talk to them about alternative options.

Wishing you luck with this and hoping you find some relief!

For how long have you taken it? Some meds may take up to two months to "really work".

Yes, and you're actually the first person I've came across who's also had it prescribed.

My doctor gave me it with the rationale that If I find urges to self harm unbearable to take it and calm down. It knocks me out completely, but I wake up feeling very sick and groggy. My limbs all ache too. I don't even want to take it again.

It's weird because not many sources online state it can be used for mental health treatment yet for some reason my doctor gave me it.

Only recently and only took the one dose, its to take just like lorazepam, when I need it, another medication I've been on, but not prescribed anymore.
