Benzodiazepine Addiction Treatment in Southern Ohio with Cardinal Treatments
Benzodiazepines—often called “benzos”—are sedative medications prescribed for anxiety, panic disorders, and other conditions. Even when used as directed, they can lead to physical dependence and addiction. At Cardinal Treatments in Southern Ohio, we offer comprehensive benzodiazepine addiction treatment designed to support safe recovery.
What Are Benzodiazepines?
Benzodiazepines work by depressing the central nervous system, offering quick relief from anxiety and other symptoms. While they can be effective when taken as prescribed, prolonged or unsupervised use may lead to tolerance, dependence, and misuse. Common benzodiazepines include:
- Alprazolam (Xanax)
- Clonazepam (Klonopin)
- Chlordiazepoxide (Librium)
- Diazepam (Valium)
- Lorazepam (Ativan)
- Temazepam (Restoril)
- Triazolam (Halcion)
It’s important to use these medications responsibly and engage in regular discussions with your healthcare provider to minimize risks.
The Dangers of Benzodiazepine Misuse
Benzodiazepine addiction carries significant risks. Misuse—especially when combined with other sedatives like alcohol—can lead to dangerous, sometimes fatal, overdoses. The effects and duration of benzos vary; while short-acting types peak within hours, long-acting ones can linger for days, increasing the risk of overdose and severe complications
The Importance of Withdrawal Management
Due to their addictive nature, benzodiazepines require a careful, medically supervised withdrawal process. Instead of stopping abruptly, Cardinal Treatments uses a gradual tapering method to manage withdrawal symptoms safely. This approach minimizes risks such as seizures and severe anxiety, ensuring a stable transition to further treatment.
