GPs generally tend to view benzodiazepines as relatively innocuous and can be unaware of their high level of abuse and street use, the founding Professor of General Practice at University College Cork has warned.
Speaking ahead of the ‘Benzodiazepines: An Integrated Response’ conference, Prof Colin Bradley told Irish Medical Times that while GPs were aware on one level of the dangers of the drug, others were not quite aware of their prevalence.
“A lot of GPs would think that while not entirely desirable, benzodiazepines are not that dangerous,” he commented.
