Benzos

Benzos (benzodiazepines) are prescription medications used to treat anxiety, insomnia, seizures, and muscle spasms. They work by enhancing GABA, a neurotransmitter that calms the brain and nervous system. Common benzodiazepines include Valium, Xanax, Ativan, and Klonopin. While effective for short-term relief, benzodiazepines can lead to dependence and tolerance with long-term use. Always use benzodiazepines under medical supervision to avoid misuse and serious side effects.
