[La...] Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 This American study is called "Benzodiazepine use and risk of mortality among patients with schizophrenia: a retrospective longitudinal study". "CONCLUSIONS: Benzodiazepine use is associated with increased mortality risk in patients with schizophrenia after adjusting for a wide range of potential confounders. Given unproven efficacy, physicians should exercise caution in prescribing benzodiazepines to schizophrenic patients." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27249075 And here's a related commentary: http://www.psychiatrist.com/JCP/article/Pages/2016/v77n05/v77n0509.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
