Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Barbiturates and benzodiazepines are both types of central nervous system depressants that are commonly prescribed as antianxiety medications. While barbiturates have largely been replaced by safer alternatives, such as benzodiazepines, both types of medications can be effective in treating anxiety. Prozac, clozapine, Haldol, lithium, Thorazine, MAO inhibitors, Elavil, and tricyclics are all medications used to treat other mental health conditions, but they are not typically used as first-line treatments for anxiety.
