How Benzodiazepines Are Used to Manage Alcohol Withdrawal
Just as alcohol affects GABA receptors, benzodiazepines can safely manage withdrawal symptoms – but how exactly do doctors choose the right one?
Not everyone who drinks consumes alcohol excessively, but alcoholism has the
potential to impact anyone at some point throughout their lives. Also known as
alcohol use disorder (AUD) in the medical community, this disease doesn’t
discriminate. Regardless of body type, nationality, gender, or age, anyone can
fall prey to alcoholism, but help is available. Knowing the causes and risk factors
of alcoholism can help you determine whether you or someone you care about
needs professional intervention.
