What Is Diazepam Used For?
A healthcare provider may prescribe diazepam for the treatment of alcohol withdrawal, anxiety, muscle spasms, or seizures. When used for treating seizures, diazepam can be helpful in stopping a seizure that is particularly hard to control. From time to time, diazepam may be used for the treatment of something other than the conditions mentioned above. Among these other, “off-label” diazepam uses are the treatment of insomnia, agitation, and benzodiazepine withdrawal.
