Benzo Addiction Symptoms

What Are Benzos?

Benzodiazepines are sedative prescription drugs that act on the central nervous system. They treat various mental health disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, panic attacks, sleep disorders, posttraumatic stress disorder, and seizures. They are even used in addiction treatments, particularly in alcohol addiction. Some common brand names include Valium, Xanax, and Klonopin. Although they’re very effective for treating mental health disorders, they are also highly addictive.
