Diazepam, first marketed as Valium, is a medicine of the benzodiazepine family that acts as an anxiolytic.[10] It is commonly used to treat a range of conditions, including anxiety, seizures, alcohol withdrawal syndrome, muscle spasms, insomnia, and restless legs syndrome.[10] It may also be used to cause memory loss during certain medical procedures.[11][12] It can be taken orally (by mouth), as a suppository inserted into the rectum, intramuscularly (injected into muscle), intravenously (injection into a vein) or used as a nasal spray.[6][12] When injected intravenously, effects begin in one to five minutes and last up to an hour.[12] Orally, effects begin after 15 to 60 minutes.[13
Gabapentin is recommended as a first-line treatment for chronic neuropathic pain by various medical authorities.[7][8][26][27] This is a general recommendation applicable to all neuropathic pain syndromes except for trigeminal neuralgia, where it may be used as a second- or third-line agent.[8][27]

Gabapentin is effective in treating sleep disorders such as insomnia and restless legs syndrome that are the result of an underlying illness, but comes with some risk of discontinuation and withdrawal symptoms after prolonged use at higher doses.[34]
Zhittya believes that this same drug that proved efficacious in the heart, could treat Parkinson’s disease, where recent evidence has demonstrated that a lack of blood flow to parts of the brain could be the initiating cause of Parkinson’s disease. < angiogenesis

The hypothalamus is responsible for regulating certain metabolic processes and other activities of the autonomic nervous system. It synthesizes and secretes certain neurohormones, called releasing hormones or hypothalamic hormones, and these in turn stimulate or inhibit the secretion of hormones from the pituitary gland. The hypothalamus controls body temperature, hunger, important aspects of parenting and maternal attachment behaviours, thirst,[3] fatigue, sleep, and circadian rhythms ( <Wiki)
The subthalamus is located ventral to the thalamus, medial to the internal capsule and lateral to the hypothalamus. It is a region formed by several grey matter nuclei and their associated white matter structures, namely:[3]
- The subthalamic nucleus, whose neurons contain glutamate and have excitatory effects over neurons of globus pallidus and substantia nigra < Wiki
