Hello joshslaker
NO! Olanzapine and Valium are not alike.
Olanzapine is a anti-psychotic medication used to treat depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and manic episodes.
Valium is a benzodiazepine medication. Valium other wise known as diazepam is prescribed for anxiety, seizure disorders, antispasmodic conditions and as a sedative before surgery.
Lastly, it is important to note that olanzapine and Valium should Not be taken together.
