Valium is a benzo, it stays the longest 1-2 weeks. Flexeril, paxil and tramadol are not benzodiazepines, do not show up on urine tests (yet) and are thought to maybe interact all together (badly)

Certainly serotonin reuptake inhibitors (paxil) are likely to affect serotonin, but tramadol and flexeril are not as certain to be involved with it. They do, however, ALL cause sedation and additive effects on sedation and lower alertness and lower coordination when taking all of them together IS quite common
