BENZODIAZEPINE WITHDRAWAL DETOX
  • Benzodiazepines are prescribed by physicians to
    treat primarily anxiety and insomnia, and some
    sub-classes (longer-acting) are used to treat
    alcohol withdrawal. Shorter-acting benzos such as
    Xanax, Ativan, Klonopin, and Valiumare more
    addictive.
  • At the Center for Network Therapy, we have an
    expert team of medical staff with years of
    experience treating benzo withdrawal and
    performing benzodiazepine detox and are ready to
    assist individuals wanting to come off of benzos
    to enter recovery from substance abuse and return
    to their productive roles in their family,
    workplace, and community. 
  • Family care and primary care physicians tend to
    prescribe benzodiazepines for a longer period of
    time, despite the risk of dependence.
    Prescriptions for benzos have increased
    dramatically in recent years, and so has
    addiction to them.

Duration Of Benzodiazepine Withdrawal Symptoms
  • However, the intensity and period of the
    withdrawal process might depend on factors
    including
  • Length of benzos use/abuse
  • Quantity consumed
  • Co-abuse of other drugs
  • Type of benzos abused
  • Method of abusing the drug
  • Underlying mental health or physical conditions
