Everyone is different. Diazepam is not for pain but for nerves and my help one relax a bit. I assume you told your Dr 4 mg did not work and asked if you could use more. Tnis will depend on your metabolism and size and other meds you may be taking. Gp to Drugs.com and read about effects of all other meds you are on on metabolism of diazepam. Enter them into the interaction checker. Discuss.
