In reply to benzo is a benzo...., posted by med_empowered on February 17, 2005, at 17:37:13
I tend to not agree on the "a benzo is a benzo" theory, no more than I think a SSRI is a SSRI or a SNRI is a SNRI and so forth. I think individual to individual there can be worlds of difference in terms of SE profiles and simply what fits best.
I understand where the thought arises that all in a particular drug class are all alike but this doesn't seem to bear out when use hits the real world. Also, while benzo's effect the GABA system, the thought is there are differences in the receptor sites they influence.
