Habitual Tranquilizer Use can Mask the Real Issues of Anxiety

Submitted by Jessica Sat 06/13/2009

The pharmaceutical industry is one of the most prosperous business in the world. This spurt is fueled by a flourishing trade in hard drugs and even presciption drugs. Rampant adverstising has a great influence on doctors and patients.

Among the many prescription drugs which have been issued prescriptions by Doctors are tranquilizers such as Valium and sleeping pills. These tranquilizers are known to have the highest repeat prescriptions and abuse. Unknown to patients, prolonged period of use of tranquilizers can interfere and slow down rather than helping treat the root of the problem and eventually the real issues of anxieties. Regular intake of tranquilizers for a prolonged period of time has produced psychologically-dependent persons who have unknowingly become drug addicts. Their sleeping and waking hours are ruled by tranquilizers.
