It really does sound as if you are shopping for a drug rather than treatment. Meprobamate is very very seldom used and has been replaced by the benzodiazepines. Unless there in a specific allergic response to benzo's I am not sure why meprobamate would be prescribed--it has many of the disadvantages and dangers of barbituates (except for the heavy sedation). It would seem to me that most, if not all, physicians would try a variety of other drugs and dosages before trying Miltown. Perhaps more information would be helpful.
