| Abstrakt: |
We report the case of a 61-year old patient with an affective disorder who had been treated with benzodiazepines in low dosages over a 16 year period. This treatment had been prescribed by his physician following several depressive episodes. During this time, the patient remained able to work and exhibited little psychopathological symptomatology. Following discontinuation of medication, however, the depressive phases resumed and were particularly intractable. The clinical implications of this case and the therapeutic strategies for approaching patients with long-term benzodiazepine treatment are discussed. |
