Dr. Christy Huff is a cardiologist and director of the Benzodiazepine Information Coalition, a not-for-profit organization that educates people about benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome, the difference between addiction and chemical dependency, and the stigma around experiencing side effects from the medication and not knowing where to turn for help. While benzodiazepines can be an important treatment option for many people, and many people take benzodiazepines as prescribed and have no issues discontinuing the drugs, there are people who struggle. This is why in October of 2020, the FDA updated the Boxed warning for all benzodiazepines to include that even when taken at recommended dosages, their use can lead to misuse, abuse and addiction and can result in overdose or death, especially when combined with other medicines, such as opioids, alcohol or illicit drugs. The FDA also included that physical dependence can occur when benzodiazepines are taken steadily for days to weeks, even when taken as prescribed. Never stop taking benzodiazepines abruptly or taper without consulting your doctor, as this can result in severe withdrawal reactions, including seizures.
