Answer:

<u>Benzodiazepines</u> are considered effective in the short-term treatment of anxiety, regardless of the cause.

Explanation:

Benzodiazepines are the group of CNS drugs which are used extensively in the attacks of anxiety alongwith insomnia and seizures because they have extremely fast acting anti-anxietic effects.

Benzodiazepines cause dose dependant CNS depression that extends from sedation to anesthesia to respiratory depression and death.

These drugs act on the GABA receptors and potentiate the effect of GABA thus resulting in the increase in the frequency of CL- channel opening thus mediate antianxiety and impairment of cognitive functions.

Benzodiazepines include following drugs :

1) Alprazolam

2) Diazepam

3) Lorazepam

4) Oxazepam
