Description
In this episode, we discuss the ways in which tolerance to benzodiazepines can develop, and how this can lead to extremely difficult withdrawals. We argue that the commonly held view of drug tolerance is delaying promising research avenues, such as "anti-tolerance drugs". We think that NAD+ IV therapy and flumazenil show promise for treating benzodiazepine withdrawal, and encourage people to share their experiences with these treatments.
