Effects
Like all drugs, benzodiazepines will affect each person differently depending on the characteristics of the:
Individual (person taking the drug) – mood, height, weight and gender.
Drug – the amount used and the way it is used.
Setting (environment) – where the drug is taken and who it is taken with.
If you are taking benzodiazepines, it can be dangerous to use other drugs at the same time (this practice of combining drugs is known as polydrug use).
