Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Diazepam is a benzodiazepine and it help to control anxiety. You can take 2mg of it and it would help to control anxiety and get better sleep. Better to consult your physician or psychiatrist for the dosage maintenance. It would help you to control the dose or avoid drug abuse.

Thanks
