Hi Lar,

I wasn't saying that everyone develops tolerance, I was simply saying that temazepam's long term efficacy can be unreliable.

I'm not a 'benzophobe'. I wanted to inform Spriggy about some of the problems which *may* occur when temazepam is used on a long-term basis. I believe that people have a right to be informed about the *possible* negative consequences of long-term use. I was not suggesting that tolerance or dependence was inevitable, just that it was a possibility and that intermittent use may be preferable in cases where it is feasible. Although long-term use of temazepam is sometimes required, it should not be undertaken without an appreciation of the potential risks. I got the impression that Spriggy's doctor had not provided her with any information. I hope that my post has not caused anxiety or offence.

Regards,
Ed.
