DESCRIPTION
Diazepam, which is a benzodiazepine-type drug, induces a calming effect of the central nervous system (CNS). It possesses anti-anxiety, anticonvulsant, sedative, and skeletal muscle relaxant properties. It is closely related to clonazepam. Valium is prescribed for anxiety-related disorders and alcohol withdrawal. Common side effects of diazepam include drowsiness and fatigue; dependence and withdrawal upon abrupt discontinuation are possible. Any unusual side effects such as behavior problems, convulsions, hallucinations, anger, confusion, mental depression, and difficulty concentrating should be discussed with a doctor. Diazepam has the potential to magnify effects of alcohol and other CNS depressants (antihistamines, sleep aids, pain drugs, muscle relaxants, and anticonvulsants).

In Multiple Sclerosis (MS), diazepam is used primarily for the relief of muscle spasm, stiffness, difficulty walking, and muscle spasticity. Along with other drugs, it can contribute to sexual dysfunctions including decreased libido, erectile problems, and abnormal ejaculation. Although scientific data are limited on the use of benzodiazepines in Multiple Sclerosis, diazepam is also used for tremors. Patients with MS may experience spasticity (uncontrolled contraction or squeezing) of the bladder, which involves discomfort and pain. Valium also has been used to treat these contractions due to its sedating properties. It may be difficult to distinguish between symptoms associated with Multiple Sclerosis and some side effects of diazepam; therefore, patients have regular appointments with their doctor to communicate any concerns.

If you tend to have low blood pressure, diazepam can aggravate it, and Valium should not be given if you have glaucoma. In oculogyric crisis, diazepam can be given as an intravenous infusion or an intramuscular injection, according to the Canadian Movement Disorder Group. It is also available in oral form for maintenance treatment.
