A member asked:
How is it that valium should not be used if you have narrow angle glaucoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: Valium belongs in a class of medications that, in theory, could precipitate an angle closure attack (as a weak anticholinergic). In practice, this is not an absolute contraindication. What is more important is to ensure that your narrow angles are managed by your ophthalmologist (either with laser+/-medication).
