A member asked:

Hey can u tell me what's the effect of valium or clonazepine on sleeping?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sedation: At first it will make you drowsy and aid sleep. But if you take increasing doses or you abuse them you may become dependent on them and be unable to sleep without taking them.
