Abstract

In the literature no study has been reported that relates free drug or saliva drug concentrations to performance on a driving skill. The primary goal of this study is to compare saliva Diazepam (Valium) levels with free Diazepam levels in patients at a given time after administration of the drug. The results suggest that saliva levels can be used to predict the corresponding plasma levels.
