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

Benzodiazepines (BDPs) are widely used drugs that are effective in controlling the symptoms of anxiety. Tolerance develops rapidly to some of the effects but not to anxiolytic effect in most patients. Dependence occurs at usual therapeutic doses and in a small proportion of patients is accompanied by an enormous increase in the dose taken. The majority

AbstractBenzodiazepines present problems related to both unwanted and withdrawal effects. Dosage adjustments usually obviate unwanted effects except for paradoxical reactions such as hostility. Patients with apparent benzodiazepine dependence need careful assessment with respect to personality, social situation and psychiatric disorder.

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1988
The structure of the GABAA receptor, through which GABA--the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian CNS--produces its major synaptic effects, has recently been identified. The GABAA receptor is a member of a family of receptor-operated ion channels to which the nicotinic cholinergic receptor-cation channel and the glycine receptor-anion ...

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.

British Journal of Addiction, 1981
SummaryBenzodiazepines, the most widely used of all drugs, are powerful anxiolytics, anticonvulsants and muscle relaxants. Dependence 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 do not provide a proper epidemiological ...

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 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.

Although the benzodiazepines have been extensively investigated since their discovery about 20 years ago1, only recently have antagonists of the classical actions of benzodiazepines been described2. We have now discovered a class of benzodiazepines which have lost all affinity for benzodiazepine binding sites but which have moderate to high affinity ...
