Why have benzodiazepines largely replaced barbiturates?
Benzodiazepines have largely replaced barbiturates due to their improved safety profile and lower risk of overdose. Benzodiazepines have a wider therapeutic window and produce less respiratory depression, making them safer for use, especially in patients with respiratory issues. Additionally, benzodiazepines have a quicker onset and shorter duration of action, making them more suitable for treating anxiety and insomnia.
