It has several uses, for nausea after surgery, for OCD, as an antianxiety, also prior to surgery with a pre-op pain med to enhance the pain relife medication's ability.

I have also seen it often mixed with morphine, for relief of pain, after surgery. It relaxes your muscles, while the morphine goes to work tricking your mind into thinking that you don't feel any pain.
