Stopping a benzo abruptly?

Posted by KaraS on July 20, 2005, at 14:09:11

I know that there's a strong risk of seizures if you've been on a benzo for a while and you stop taking it abruptly. How long before you stop taking it does this become a problem? I'm worried that if I got a stomach flu or food poisoning, would I have to get myself to an emergency room ASAP in order to have an IV drip of the medication?
