WHAT APO-DIAZEPAM
IS USED FOR
Apo-Diazepam(Diazepam) is useful in
symptomatic relief of excessive anxiety
and tension in psychoneurotic
(maladaptive emotional behaviour)
patients.
In acute alcoholic withdrawal, diazepam
may be useful in the symptomatic relief
of acute agitation, tremor and impending
acute delirium tremens (an acute,
sometimes fatal episode of delirium that
is usually caused by withdrawal from
chronic alcoholism, involving tremors,
anxiety, hallucinations [hearing voices or
seeing images that are not really there],
and disorientation).
Diazepam is also a useful adjunct to the
relief of spasticity in neuromuscular
disorders (muscle spasms).
HOW APO-DIAZEPAM WORKS
Apo-Diazepam contains the active
ingredient Diazepam. Apo-Diazepam
belongs to a group of medicines called
benzodiazepines. They are thought to
work by their action on brain chemicals.
Diazepam possesses anxiolytic and
sedative properties which may be of
value in the symptomatic relief of
manifest anxiety and tension states in
psychoneurotic patients. It has also and
adjunctive value in the relief of certain
neurospastic conditions.
