Diazepam tablets are used to treat a number of conditions, including:

In adults

helping muscles relax and for muscle spasm and cerebral palsy (a condition affecting the brain which causes movement problems and rigidity or stiffness)
epilepsy (when taken with other medicines)
patients with the symptoms of alcohol withdrawal
helping to relax nervous dental patients.

In children

helping to treat tension and irritability caused by cerebral spasticity (a condition associated with a disease or trauma affecting the brain or spinal cord which causes weakness, un-coordinated movements, rigidity and stiffness)
