DIAZEPAM contains Diazepam, which works by increasing levels of brain cells (neurons) calming chemical, known as gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), in your brain that helps to relieve anxiety and stop seizures attacks (fits), and relaxation of the tense muscles. Besides this, DIAZEPAM relieves temporary insomnia (sleeplessness) due to anxiety disorder. Off-label uses for DIAZEPAM include alcohol withdrawal syndrome, insomnia, panic disorder, chemotherapy-associated nausea and vomiting. DIAZEPAM is not recommended for mild to moderate anxiety and tension related to day-to-day life.
DIAZEPAM should not be used unless prescribed by a doctor. Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to take DIAZEPAM for as long as your doctor prescribes it. Sometimes, you may experience certain common side effects, such as daytime drowsiness, light-headedness, unsteadiness, or dizziness. Most of these side effects of DIAZEPAM do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
Try not to stop taking DIAZEPAM of your own as it may cause withdrawal symptoms. Do not take DIAZEPAM if you have any lung disease, muscle weakness (myasthenia gravis), sleeping disorder or difficulty in sleeping (sleep apnoea), severe liver disease, or problem with alcohol or other prescription recreational drugs. DIAZEPAM is a habit-forming drug, so there is a risk of dependence on DIAZEPAM. So, before stopping DIAZEPAM, contact a doctor as it may cause withdrawal symptoms like anxiety, increased heart rate, tremor, or general unwell feeling. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please tell your doctor so that your doctor will weigh the benefits and any potential risks before prescribing it to you. Do not drive or operate machinery as DIAZEPAM may reduce mental alertness.
DIAZEPAM helps manage anxiety disorder and relieve symptoms of anxiety, acute alcohol withdrawal, and skeletal muscle spasm. When you take DIAZEPAM, you will have more chemical messenger (GABA neurotransmitter) in your body. It decreases the feeling of nervousness, stress, and anxiety, which leads to a state of calm and relaxation. DIAZEPAM benefits people who struggle with anxiety and worries in daily life. Regular intake of the prescribed dose of DIAZEPAM improves social life, your ability and performance at work, and general wellbeing.
