Benzodiazepine dependence

Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, 1984
Dependence to benzodiazepines is difficult to induce in animals but has been induced by high doses in man. Case reports of benzodiazepine dependence are rare compared with the usage of these drugs, but provide no proper epidemiological framework for the estimation of risk.

Benzodiazepines

2015
Benzodiazepines have been in clinical use since the 1960s. Benzodiazepines act through allosteric modulation of the GABAA receptor to enhance the activity of GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, resulting in a slowing of neurotransmission and sedative and anxiolytic effects.

Opioids and Benzodiazepines

Critical Care Clinics, 1995
Most patients in the intensive care unit experience pain and anxiety, which are treated most commonly with an opioid or a benzodiazepine. These compounds are effective and have a well-established safety record. With the exception of associated respiratory depression, they have a relatively wide therapeutic window.

Benzodiazepines and behavior

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1985
This article sets the background for the following series of articles on the behavioral actions of drugs acting at the GABA-benzodiazepine receptor complex. The articles provide detailed analyses of particular behaviors and emphasise the danger of interpreting all behavioral effects in terms of anxiety.

Benzodiazepines in Pregnancy

Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2019
Benzodiazepine use and dependence are on the rise as well as the number of deaths attributable to the combination of opioids and benzodiazepines. Anxiety, the most frequent condition for which benzodiazepines are prescribed, occurs commonly, and is increasingly noted to coincide with pregnancy.

Benzodiazepines and alcohol

Journal of Psychiatric Research, 1990
The frequency and quantity of alcohol consumption is a major consideration in patients who need treatment with benzodiazepines. Alcohol affects the GABA-benzodiazepine-chloride ionophore complex and has an agonist-like action. Thus, additive interactions should be expected from combining alcohol with benzodiazepines. Furthermore, alcohol has clinically

ChemInform Abstract: AN OPIOID BENZODIAZEPINE

Chemischer Informationsdienst, 1982
AbstractEs wird über pharmakologische Ergebnisse berichtet, die zeigen, daß Tifluadom (KG 5103) (I) ein Vertreter einer neuen Klasse von Benzodiazepinen ist, der keine Affinität zu sonstigen Benzodiazepin‐Rezeptoren besitzt, sondern selektiv an den Opiat‐K‐Rezeptoren wirkt.

Long-term use of benzodiazepines can lead to dependence. Symptoms of withdrawal include anxiety, irritability, confusion, seizures, and sleep disorders. Withdrawal management relies on the use of a single agent (diazepam) and gradual dose reduction.

Benzodiazepines:

Advances in Alcohol & Substance Abuse, 1990
The benzodiazepines were first introduced in 1960. Chlordiazepoxide (Librium) was the first of the class of drugs called benzodiazepines, in a deliberate attempt to synthesize a tranquilizer without the sedative properties and abuse, addiction, tolerance, and dependence potential of the barbiturates, and other sedative/hypnotic drugs. The popularity of
