Organizations Raising Awareness

October 6, 2019 by Patricia Leave a Comment

W-BAD

World Benzodiazepine Awareness Day (W-BAD) seeks to raise global awareness about iatrogenic benzodiazepine dependence and the dangers of its associated withdrawal syndrome, which can persist for years. This class of medication can affect different people in different ways, and some people may not experience adverse effects of a medication, but there is a large group of people worldwide who do suffer from adverse effects associated with physical dependence (from as prescribed use) and withdrawal.
