Ummmmm.......so the chemical structure is changed to determine half life and strength. I think I said that somewhere above, didn't I. That what I'm getting from that link above.

Can it be said that one benzo is more addictive or creates stronger dependancy issues than another? Is there a benzo that is more safe than another?

And.....how is it determined which benzo is best for any given patient? Doctors seem to be prescribing this stuff like candy so how is it determinded what's the best med for a situation. My sister recently had high blood pressure that she thought was brought about by work related stress. Rather than prescribe a bp med, the doctor gave her Ativan and told her to keep an eye on her bp. This makes no sense to me. Does it make sense to ya'll? My sister is a smoker, a drinker and smokes pot. This med regimine makes no sense to me.
