In this episode, we discuss the ways in which tolerance to benzodiazepines can develop, and how this can lead to extremely difficult withdrawals.

We think that NAD+ IV therapy and flumazenil show promise for treating benzodiazepine withdrawal, and encourage people to share their experiences with these treatments.
