Ok calling all experienced psych nurses: This is the third pt at least ive seen that appears to be in benzo withdrawal even after the taper is DONE. Seems no doctors think that people could be physiologically withdrawing from say xanax, ativan, clonopin.......even though they were previously on these drugs for YEARS. So I have seen pt number three this week: was on xanax for three yrs prior to this admission (as well as other drugs). His pupils are dilated , his BP and hr are climbing all the time. He is having tremors. But the docs say NO WAY is he still in withdrawal. SO has anyone seen people still withdrawing after detox from benzos?? Im convinced they can and they do keep having symptoms of WD . what do you think??? ( He finished ativan taper a few days ago)thanks:nurse:
