Drug sedative dependence potential trigger because it affects the brain in the same way as heroin and marijuana.

Researchers from Switzerland and the United States found that drugs benzodiazepines like Valium and Xanax, issued a calming effect by strengthening the neurotransmitter activity. This process will enable the further satisfaction of the hormone dopamine in the brain. This way of working together with several types of drugs.

These findings, bright researchers, is expected to help the development of new generation Benzodiazepines do not cause dependence.

Valium is a Roche product. Tranquilizers known as generic name diazepam is a drug of the class the best known benzodiazepines and prescribed in the National Health Service (NHS).

Valium and Ativan is what is found in the blood of American pop star Michael Jackson when he died in June last year.

The study published in the journal Nature found that Benzodiazepines work by binding to a specific part of a neurotransmitter called gamma-aminobutyric acid.

“These findings indicate that the development of similar but Benzodiazepines bind other parts can offer the same benefits without the side effects of addiction,” explained researcher.

Another study published earlier this month found that people with higher levels of dopamine in the brain are prone to addiction.

The drug companies have several times tried to develop a new generation Benzodiazepines without side effects. But so far, these efforts have not shown satisfactory results.
