WHAT IS BENZODIAZEPINE ABUSE?

Benzodiazepines, commonly known as benzos, are a class of medications prescribed for anxiety, seizures, and insomnia. Benzo drug abuse develops when the brain becomes reliant on the calming effects of them, making normal functioning without them increasingly difficult. Prolonged or inappropriate use of benzodiazepines disrupts the body’s natural chemical balance, leading to intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms when one attempts to quit.

BENZODIAZEPINE ABUSE RISKS

Prolonged use of prescribed benzodiazepines significantly increases the risk of developing physical and psychological dependence, which can lead to potentially fatal overdoses, especially when combined with other substances such as alcohol. Common side effects include cognitive impairments, such as memory loss, confusion, and difficulty concentrating. Paradoxically, discontinuing benzos can lead to withdrawal symptoms, such as seizures and tremors, which can be severe and life-threatening.
