How does Diazepam Work?

Diazepam works by increasing the activity of a neurotransmitter in the brain – GABA. These neurotransmitters are responsible for transmitting messages between the nerve cells. It also acts as a natural nerve-calming or tranquilizer agent. By taking Diazepam or Valium, it increases the calming effects to keep the nerve activity in the brain in balance.
