Valium ®, Recovery First:"Valium ®, or Diazepam, is a benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety disorders and convulsive disorders such as epilepsy. Use of Valium ® can cause addiction and physical dependence; withdrawal symptoms may occur if the drug is discontinued. Withdrawal symptoms can range from sleeplessness and anxiety to seizures and even death. Tolerance develops when the drug is taken over time, meaning that higher doses must be used to achieve the same effect."

Diazepam is also used for the treatment of agitation, tremors, delirium, seizures, and hallucinations as a result of alcohol withdrawal. Diazepam is also used for relief of muscle spasms in certain neurological diseases. Diazepam is used to abort active seizures and can be combined with other drugs in treating severe recurrent seizures."
