Summary: "Understanding and addressing the current opioid crisis requires knowledge of the endogenous opioids (endorphins and enkephalins), but there is now evidence for a benzodiazepine crisis. Are there endogenous benzodiazepine-like substances - and what do they do? How do they affect the anti-anxiety drugs and their adverse effects? Do they explain the enigmatic prolonged benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome? Naturally Occurring Benzodiazepines, Endozepines, and their Receptors: Implications for Benzodiazepine Therapy and Withdrawal raises important questions about the clinical consequences of ignoring the existence of or understanding the potential influence of endogenous benzodiazepines on the therapeutic effect of benzodiazepines, their adverse effects, and the problems of withdrawal from them and other benzodiazepine receptor agonists"--
