PEACIN TABLET belongs to a group of medications called Benzodiazepine (BZD), primarily used to treat short-term relief of severe anxiety disorder, muscle spasms and fits (seizures). Besides this, it also reduces alcohol withdrawal symptoms (like sweating or difficulty sleeping etc.). Before undergoing any surgical procedure, PEACIN TABLET is sometimes given as 'pre-med' to prevent anxiety, fear and worry. An anxiety disorder is a mental condition characterized by feelings of excessive fear or worry that affect an individual's daily activities. High anxiety levels can cause panic attacks, with intense feelings of nervousness, fear, and sudden onset of sweating, hyperventilation, fast heartbeat, and skin flushing.

PEACIN TABLET contains Diazepam, which works by increasing levels of brain cells (neurons) calming chemical, known as gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), in your brain that helps to relieve anxiety and stop seizures attacks (fits), and relaxation of the tense muscles. Besides this, PEACIN TABLET relieves temporary insomnia (sleeplessness) due to anxiety disorder. Off-label uses for PEACIN TABLET include alcohol withdrawal syndrome, insomnia, panic disorder, chemotherapy-associated nausea and vomiting. PEACIN TABLET is not recommended for mild to moderate anxiety and tension related to day-to-day life.

PEACIN TABLET should not be used unless prescribed by a doctor. Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to take PEACIN TABLET for as long as your doctor prescribes it. Sometimes, you may experience certain common side effects, such as daytime drowsiness, light-headedness, unsteadiness, or dizziness. Most of these side effects of PEACIN TABLET do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Try not to stop taking PEACIN TABLET of your own as it may cause withdrawal symptoms. Do not take PEACIN TABLET if you have any lung disease, muscle weakness (myasthenia gravis), sleeping disorder or difficulty in sleeping (sleep apnoea), severe liver disease, or problem with alcohol or other prescription recreational drugs. PEACIN TABLET is a habit-forming drug, so there is a risk of dependence on PEACIN TABLET. So, before stopping PEACIN TABLET, contact a doctor as it may cause withdrawal symptoms like anxiety, increased heart rate, tremor, or general unwell feeling. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please tell your doctor so that your doctor will weigh the benefits and any potential risks before prescribing it to you. Do not drive or operate machinery as PEACIN TABLET may reduce mental alertness.

PEACIN TABLET helps manage anxiety disorder and relieve symptoms of anxiety, acute alcohol withdrawal, and skeletal muscle spasm. When you take PEACIN TABLET, you will have more chemical messenger (GABA neurotransmitter) in your body. It decreases the feeling of nervousness, stress, and anxiety, which leads to a state of calm and relaxation. PEACIN TABLET benefits people who struggle with anxiety and worries in daily life. Regular intake of the prescribed dose of PEACIN TABLET improves social life, your ability and performance at work, and general wellbeing.

High anxiety levels can cause panic attacks, with intense feelings of nervousness, fear, and sudden onset of sweating, hyperventilation, fast heartbeat, and skin flushing. Anxiety disorders are different from feelings of anxiety and feeling nervous, which involve excessive anxiety, fear, or worry. Fear can arise due to stress and emotional response to an immediate threat related to more staying to fight or leaving to escape danger. Fear before getting ready for the surgery is also a part of short-term anxiety. Anxiety disorders can affect an individual’s job performance, school work, and personal relationships.
