User Reviews for Diazepam

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: I like this medication for anxiety but sometimes it makes me mean. I don't know if anyone else experienced this however, I highly recommend this drug for anxiety over any of the other benzodiazapines.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: I like this for anxiety.

diazepam for Anxiety: My panic and anxiety problems used to be an everyday, or an every hour problem. I started using Valium over 30 years ago, several times a day. I am over 50, and am down to one or two diazepam a month. Maybe long time monitored use has been the difference, but I will never go anywhere without it. It has become a security blanket. It has been so effective, knowing it's there, it somehow does the trick.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: I have tried everything for my anxiety and depression including Klonopin, Xanax, Ativan. I did think Ativan did work for me but never did get it permanently but Valium has been pretty good with me so far.

diazepam for Muscle Spasm: I was riding a Segway last weekend and unfortunately crashed and burned. Fell on my right side. Right now pretty black and blue. Had a lot of high intensive muscle spasms including entire upper right back area radiating around to upper chest and abdomen. Each lasted several seconds. Doctor prescribed 5mg Diazepam tabs up to 8 per day. Only needed four a day to start and spasms showed remarkable improvement within two days. Still have some at night when reclining or turning but I believe this will subside within a week instead of weeks. The doctor sure knew what he was doing.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: I have been taking two (one in the morning and one at night) 5mg Valium for the last five years. It has worked wonders for me. I have not changed the dosage and have had no reason to increase it. Before I started this medicine, I would literally tremble when I would get nervous. I don't even feel it in any way when I take it, but don't get anxious and am able to make decisions that I can't when I'm so nervous. This medicine has worked miracles for me and if anyone thinks because it is a controlled substance that it is not a really good medicine for some people then they are wrong.

diazepam for Anxiety: I find that taking diazepam helps makes the withdrawals that much easier. I'm taking them daily so I don't use anything else.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: I have been taking Valium for 6 years. It's the best anxiety medicine I've used and I've tried a bunch. I take 4 x 10mg tablets a day. I don't know what I would do without it.

diazepam for Muscle Spasm: I've been prescribed most of the drugs on this review list and met with differing degrees of success. My sacrum detached or tore from my right hip in a sports accident and I get tremendous back pain associated with muscle spasms as things slip out of position in my low back. Even after being reset into the proper positions, I have muscle spasms for a couple days as the muscles get used to being where they should really be. Diazepam works wonders for me. I can take 5mg and be good all day. It works fast and keeps me from being so out of it like cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril). Robaxin does nothing for me and NSAIDS are also worthless - daizepam is perfect.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: A doctor prescribed this for hypertension, based upon his premise that mine was caused by anxiety. That was almost 40 years ago. After arguing back and forth, I agreed to take it on a limited basis. Now I use 2 mg, 4 times a day as needed, but only before lying down and never when I will be driving or need to otherwise be alert. It is a great help when I do get overly anxious, as I am prone to do. I consider it useless if I am up and about.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: It is a reasonably good drug and it has helped me a bit so far.

diazepam for Anxiety: First time I took it a year ago, I couldn't function. I took it this year, it helps.

Valium (diazepam) for Temporomandibular Joint Disorder: It really helped me. Recommend it to anyone.

diazepam for Anxiety: I have used this medicine for years and it has been a blessing because I have had no side effects and it works very well for anxiety.

Diastat (diazepam) for Seizures: Not the most pleasant medication to receive but I'm not a zombie after my seizures stop and it works fairly quickly.

diazepam for Anxiety: It helps keep things peaceful.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: It keeps me very sane.

diazepam for Anxiety: One day I was absolutely hysterically crying over a tragedy and I could not stop. I took 10mg diazepam, and when it kicked in, I became emotionless. Not a zombie, but not out of control emotionally. Good relaxing agent which brings a little elation. I haven't found it effective for stressing out. Con: Long half-life. Effects of Valium can be felt for a long time. Pro: Also stopped my girlfriend's seizures.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: Whether coming home from a hard days work or worrying about the next job, Valium 10mg has been a wonder drug for me. It calms me down and allows me to think straight.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: I take 2 to 6 in the evening to settle down and be able to watch some T.V with my husband. I have been diagnosed with high blood pressure, which I take two kinds of medicines to keep under 140/82.

Works very effectively.

I was prescribed valium for tension headaches. I have severe migraines and tension headaches. They could not find out exactly why I was having them, so we have to treat the symptom. Valium actually makes me able to function through some of the worst tension headaches. Before, I was spending so much time locked in a dark room between the migraines and tension headaches. I was missing my life and the lives of my children. It is really nice to be able to have a part in their lives and my own. I am thankful daily that I can rejoin the world again.

Valium (diazepam) for Seizure Prevention: I have had seizures from a kick to the head. For 6 years, they started out giving me Valium and it worked great for the prevention of the seizures for about 4 1/2 years. Then it was no longer effective. They had to switch me to Klonopin, another benzodiazepine, but that is working for me now.

Valium (diazepam) for Muscle Spasm: I was recently given valium with methadone for muscle spasm and pain due to cancer treatment. I have to say with all the other medicines we tried this worked the best. I have to give a big thanks to my doctors for finally coming up with a treatment that finally worked.

Valium (diazepam) for Anxiety: I am a very nervous person and would get very emotional after surgery, but if was given Valium before surgery I would wake up very relaxed.
