Valium (diazepam): can treat anxiety and muscle spasms but has side effects including muscle twitches, forgetfulness, and trouble urinating. It can lead to dependence. The long-term effects of Valium include memory loss, slowed pulse, difficulty breathing, and hallucinations. Review your current status with your prescriber who may want to change your treatment. Best regards for relief.
