ABSTRACT
Benzodiazepines, which used to and would be prescribed frequently as anxiolytic sedative hypnotics not only in psychiatric field but also in almost all clinical departments, are prone to develop tolerance, physical and psychological dependence, and withdrawal symptoms after abrupt discontinuation. Owing to shorter plasma half life, severe degree of tolerance, physical and psychological dependence, and withdrawal symptoms after abrupt discontinuation have been developed in a case of triazolam dependence. Nevertheless, no single case of triazolam dependence was reported yet in Korea. The authors experienced a single case of triazolam dependence, so report with literature review.
