Valium! How does it work? what are the side effects? In this video I will look at the science behind Valium to determine whether or not it is the right drug for you. • Valium Cheat Sheet: E-mail “[email protected] and I will send it straight to you • What is Valium? • Valium, also known as Diazepam, is a benzodiazepine drug that produces a calming effect. It is used to treat anxiety, seizures and even insomnia. • How Does Valium Work? • Valium works by binding to GABA ion channels and promoting GABA activity in your nervous system. • GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, so by increasing GABA activity, valium effectively inhibits the nervous system, reducing excitement signals and calming your brain and your body. • What are the side effects? • Valium can cause dizziness, drowsiness, weakness and confusion. • Don’t take valium with alcohol, it will amplify the effects which can lead to respiratory depression and loss of consciousness. • Also, be careful with grapefruit! It is metabolised by an enzyme called CYP3A4, and so is valium. When combined, it can slow your metabolism so you absorb more of the drug, making it far more potent! • Finally, if you use valium regularly, you will build up a tolerance, meaning you will need more of the drug to get the same calming effects, but this can be very dangerous and potentially lead to an overdose. • If you find yourself taking Valium regularly, try to get some help and find an alternative relaxant. • References and citations for this video can be found below • How valium works: https://link.springer.com/article/10.... • Valium vs similar drugs: https://psycnet.apa.org/record/1983-2... • Valium treatment of anxiety: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama... • Grapefruit and valium: https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consume... • Valium and addiction: https://www.aafp.org/afp/2000/0401/p2... • BE MY FRIEND: • 💌 Sign up to my weekly email newsletter - https://bit.ly/3CaLQCM • 📸 Slide into my DMs on Instagram - / travellingscience • 🐦 Teach me how to Twitter - / jctravelscience • 🎬 Check out my YouTube Channel- / thetravellingscientist • 📘 Join the Facebook Community - / travellingscientist • 🍻 Support my channel via Patreon - / thetravellingscientist • 🕺🏼 Learn Laugh at my TikTok - / thetravelingscientist • WHO AM I: • I'm Jesse, a science communicator currently living in Melbourne, Australia.
