The completed spreadsheet included
BZD type, therapeutic indications, patient factors including age and gender, concomitant drugs prescribed with
BZDs, and demographics including district and substructure under each region in the WC.
In a recent study involving 13,089 people suffering from chronic noncancerous pain, 42.3% had received a prescription of benzodiazepines (
BZD) in the 30 days prior to death (Olfson, Wall, Wang, Crystal & Blanco, 2017).
A previous study of patients with cognitive impairment found that 70.4% were on multiple medications and 42% took
BZD [32].
A amostra intencional foi composta de usuarios de
BZD, de ambos os sexos, com idade superior a 18 anos cadastrados na farmacia municipal de referencia de quatro equipes de SF da regiao oeste mineira, que receberam medicamentos nos ultimos 12 meses, conforme o que regulamenta a Portaria no 344 (12).
Even though
BZD and ANI casted devices had a greater share of photon absorption, still they exhibited poor device performance due to inefficient photo-conversion caused by higher series resistance ([R.sub.s]) and lower shunt resistance ([R.sub.sh]) in their devices due to their large sized P3HT crystallites and larger phase separation.
Scutellaria lateriflora (SL) has traditionally been used for anxiety and related disorders in North America, and in vitro studies have shown it to contain phytochemicals with
BZD and serotonin-7 (5-HT7) receptor binding affinity.
The study, conducted to assess the motives and patterns of benzodiazepine (
BZD) use and psychiatric comorbidity among patients on injectable heroin or oral opioids, found that nearly half of patients reported prolonged use of benzodiazepines in the past 5 years.
(37) The same pattern was observed for the use of anxiolytics (
BZD); 18% of our population regularly used one
BZD, which is similar to the observed in a cross-sectional survey of 2932 HIV-infected patients in France (16%) (38) and much higher than the observed rate in the overall Brazilian population (5.6%).

In particular, the studies performed by Medina 1989 have demonstrated the capacity of some flavonoids for binding to the central type benzodiazepine (
BZD) receptors (14).
