About
Valium, also known by its generic name diazepam, is a widely prescribed medication that belongs to the benzodiazepine class. This medication is primarily used to manage anxiety disorders, muscle spasms, and seizures. Valium works by enhancing the effects of a neurotransmitter called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), leading to a calming effect on the central nervous system.
