General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Chlordiazep contains chlordiazepoxide. How much dose you are taking you have not written here. The normal dose of chlordiazepoxide for the treatment of anxiety is 30 mg per day orally in three divided doses i.e. 10 mg every 8 hours. But
Advice
1.     Chlordiazep is a prescription based medicine. So consult a doctor for written prescription
2.     Chlordiazep (10 mg) every 8 hours per oral for 2 weeks
3.     Avoid swimming, driving and mechanical work as it causes sedation as side effect
4.     Avoid smoking and alcohol along with Chlordiazep
