General Information

Diazepam is a long-acting benzodiazepine medication, a tranquiliser prescribed for the treatment of moderate to severe anxiety and panic disorders, insomnia (short-term), muscle spasms and alcohol withdrawal. It is also used to treat, and in some cases (in combination with epileptic drugs) prevent, severe epilepsy.
If possible this medication should not be used continuously for longer than 14 days, as tolerance and physical and psychological dependence can occur. The higher the dose and the longer the drug is taken, the higher the risk of experiencing unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. Rebound anxiety, for one, can commonly occur.
Anxiety and tension related to everyday life should not be treated with diazepam.

How does diazepam work?
Diazepam has an effect on gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). GABA is the brain’s quieting or tranquilising neurotransmitter, possessing an inhibitive effect on the transmission of nerve signals. Diazepam, and other benzodiazepines, enhances the effect of GABA, thus slowing down the transmission of nerve signals.
