Dosage Considerations:
The appropriate dosage of Valium varies based on factors such as the severity of anxiety, individual response, and overall health. Healthcare professionals typically recommend the lowest effective dose to minimize the risk of side effects.
Potential Side Effects:
As with any medication, Valium is associated with potential side effects. Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, and blurred vision. Users should be aware of these potential side effects and promptly report any unusual or severe reactions to their healthcare provider.

Extended use of Valium, even at prescribed doses, may lead to the development of tolerance and dependence. Strict adherence to the prescribed dosage and duration is crucial, and concerns about tolerance or dependence should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
