Any medication interaction site will verify this. In fact, these were two of the medications found in Heath Ledger's system (along with several others).

Medical professionals are in a better position (knowledge, experience) to make medical judgment calls on things like this because they are (or should be) familiar with a patient's medical history, medication tolerance(s), and other factors.

Just mentioned the Vallium because of her issues with Xanax and breakthru meds which obivously have already been prescribed for her.

Otherwise; completely agree.
