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

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 ...

An opioid benzodiazepine

Nature, 1982
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 ...

Benzodiazepine Dependence

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 ...

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.

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 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.
