Benzodiazepines: the new drug for students

 

Benzodiazepines are increasingly used by students to cope with exams, but their uncontrolled use can lead to rapid addiction. Fortunately, benzodiazepine tests are available to ensure that no dangerous drugs are being used or that withdrawal is being followed. A simple urine strip provides a reliable result in 5 minutes.

What are benzodiazepines?

Benzodiazepines are psychoactive drugs, such as antidepressants, anxiolytics, muscle relaxants etc.

Normally, these drugs must be prescribed by a doctor, in a very selective and controlled way. Unfortunately, there are many other ways to get them without a prescription on the black market or on the dark web, and these drugs are increasingly used without any medical supervision.

Some students suffering from depression, insomnia, or intense exam stress resort to these substances to calm their fears and anxieties. Many students who are serious, studious and concerned about their success use these substances. Indeed, benzodiazepines are not what one would call a delinquent drug. Most of the time, the excessive use of these products comes from an uncontrollable consumption of tranquilizers.

The problem is that, unfortunately, these drugs cause a rapid and extremely strong dependency, similar to other drugs. It quickly becomes almost impossible to do without them. The effects fade over time, forcing users to increase their doses a little more and more. This is known as prescription drugs addiction.

When these drugs are prescribed by a doctor, some patients who can no longer stick to the dosage increase the doses themselves, sometimes by obtaining multiple prescriptions from different practitioners or by buying from parallel sales channels. Also, it is not uncommon for people to legally purchase part of their intake, and then obtain the rest of their supply under the table or on the street from a specialized dealer.

If your children change their behaviour in a noticeable way (apart from the fatigue and stress normally caused by exams), if you find empty packages of unknown pills, or if you notice an unexplained increase in their spending, then you may want to ask yourself about benzodiazepines.

To check that no dangerous drugs are used, or to verify that a benzodiazepine withdrawal is respected, the only reliable solution is to test.

PharmaDrugTest.com answers this need by proposing benzodiazepine screening tests. A simple urine strip, and you get a result in 5 minutes.

If this type of drugs have been consumed, you will know it.
