Something else that I saw. Some doctors suspect that benzodiazepines might be more dangerous for seniors—at least some.

Benzodiazepines should be prescribed for no more than two days.

Any longer is a crime.

I’ve taken exactly one Valium in my whole life.

Woke up 8 hours later, still had the “stress headache”*.

My chart now says “Hypersensitive to benzodiazipines!!!”

*It wasn’t stress, it was carbon monoxide...

Occasional dosing ok but some seniors are on early and often doses.

Benzos hit the same receptors as alcohol.
