Diazepam

What is Diazepam?

Diazepam, pronounced as "dye-az-e-pam" was first launched in the 1950's by Roche pharmaceuticals, under the brand name Valium. It is a strong benzodiazepine sedative which works quickly to reduce feelings of anxiety and control panic attacks. This anxiety medication is generally available on prescription only which comes in a tablet form, a liquid that can be swallowed, and as a rectal gel that comes in a tube (sometimes referred to the brand names Diazemuls and Desitin). Rectal tubes are generally only used in an emergency to stop a seizure.

The most commonly available version is the tablet form.

Since people in the UK suffer anxiety more than any other condition, this treatment option has become one of the most used anti-anxiety medications in the United Kingdom. Due to the nature of anxiety disorders, people generally do not like to talk about it, especially with strangers, and tend to buy diazepam online for home delivery in the UK.

How Does Diazepam Work?

Diazepam is a benzodiazepine medication which works on increasing levels of a chemical found in the brain called gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA). GABA occurs naturally in the brain and is responsible for blocking certain signals in neve receptors. It helps reduce activity in the brain and promote a feeling of calmness and relaxation almost instantly when GABA binds with a benzodiazepine.

Some other similar medications that belong to the same group of medication, and work in similar way include Xanax (alprazolam), Klonopin (clonazepam) and Ativan (lorazepam). All of these medications reduce brain activity and make users feel calm and the feeling of calm helps users drift off to sleep. For this reason, doctors often recommend using diazepam for sleep.
