Any Benzo can cause tolerance then addiction in patients. FACT.
This can happen in as little as two weeks.
That is why doctors prefer NOT to prescribe Benzos for longer than two weeks and SHOULD use a tapering schedule to withdraw patients.
The biggest danger is habitual use, whether as required or daily dosages. It does have a cumulative effect in the body.
However, individuals can tolerate medicines to different degrees, so some are affected more or less so.
Likewise their ability to withdraw from the drug.
I will also say that I do believe Benzos are a very effective drug for anxiety, but ONLY in very short term crisis use.
