Benzodiazepines: Uses, Risks, and Addiction Potential

The Psychopharmacology Institute is an online platform offering unbiased, practical psychopharmacology updates for healthcare providers, with content updated monthly. It also presents opportunities to earn CME and SA credits.
In this video, we discuss the appropriate use of benzodiazepines, including an analysis of their primary and secondary applications. We also explain the best practices for selecting benzodiazepines, putting special emphasis on understanding the drawbacks linked with alprazolam use. Moreover, we seek to deepen the understanding of alprazolam’s potential for reinforcement and addiction. Finally, we address withdrawal concerns related to high-potency benzodiazepines and delve into the specific use of these drugs for treating anxiety disorders and insomnia.
