Which patient is most likely to respond quickly to antianxiety therapy with benzodiazepines?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Patients with recent anxiety reactions are more likely to respond quickly to benzodiazepines because they have a sudden onset of symptoms and have not yet developed long-term anxiety. Patients with long-term anxiety may require longer treatment and may not respond as quickly. The presence of severe depression or auditory hallucinations may require additional or alternative treatments outside of benzodiazepines.
