Relaxipam 5mg Tablet contains Diazepam 5mg, a benzodiazepine. Made by Epla, it is prescribed for anxiety, muscle spasm, alcohol withdrawal and seizures. Pack size: 8×25 tablets.

Uses of Relaxipam 5mg Tablet

Relaxipam 5mg Tablet is used for short-term relief of severe anxiety and to ease muscle spasms, including those from back problems or conditions such as cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis. It is used in a supervised setting to manage alcohol withdrawal, and to stop prolonged or repeated seizures. Doctors may also give it to help people relax before some medical or dental procedures.

How Relaxipam 5mg Tablet works

Diazepam enhances the effect of GABA, the brain’s main calming chemical messenger. This slows nerve activity in the brain and spinal cord, which reduces anxiety, relaxes tense muscles and helps stop seizures. It stays in the body for a long time, so its effects can carry over into the next day.

Possible side effects

Drowsiness and slowed reactions are common with Relaxipam 5mg Tablet. Other side effects include:

• Drowsiness
• Unsteadiness or poor coordination
• Forgetfulness
• Muscle weakness
• Tiredness

Get urgent help for slow or shallow breathing, extreme drowsiness or difficulty waking, or confusion, especially if it has been taken with alcohol or opioids.

Precautions and warnings

• Diazepam is a controlled medicine that can cause dependence; use it only as prescribed and for the shortest time possible.
• Do not stop it suddenly after regular use, as withdrawal can cause anxiety, sleeplessness and fits; your doctor will reduce it gradually.
• Do not drink alcohol or take opioid painkillers or other sedatives with it.
• Do not drive or operate machinery while taking it, and older people should take care to avoid falls.
• Tell your doctor if you have breathing problems, sleep apnoea, myasthenia gravis or liver disease, and avoid it in pregnancy and breastfeeding unless your doctor advises it.
