A member asked:
Can i take diazepam and 800mg advil (ibuprofen) together. i was prescribed both. one for muscle spasms and other for pain. i know advil (ibuprofen) also is a muscle relaxer.

Yes: Diazepam (valium) is a benzodiazepine--in this case, your physician prescribed it as a muscle relaxer. Advil (ibuprofen) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication, probably prescribed for pain relief. They do not adversely interact with each other.
