Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The nonbenzodiazepines, also called benzodiazepine-like drugs, are a class of psychoactive drugs whose pharmacological actions are similar to those of the benzodiazepines, but are structurally distant or unrelated to the benzodiazepines on a chemical level. They have similar side effects and benefits and risks as the benzodiazepines. Nonbenzodiazepines have demonstrated efficacy in treating sleep disorders. There is some limited evidence that suggests that tolerance to nonbenzodiazepines is slower to develop than with benzodiazepines. However, data is limited so no conclusions can be drawn. Data is also limited into the long term effects of nonbenzodiazepines. Further research into the safety of nonbenzodiazepines and long term effectiveness of nonbenzodiazepines has been recommended in a review of the literature. Some differences exist between the Z-drugs, for example tolerance and rebound effects may not occur with zaleplon.
