Triazolam, known by the brand name Halcion, is a prescription sedative most commonly used to treat insomnia and other sleep-related disorders. Because the drug is so habit-forming, it is generally only used short-term. Medical professionals will rarely prescribe the medication to be taken for more than several months – and it is very seldom taken every evening because the controlled substance has such a high propensity for abuse, medical professionals who do prescribe it if they deem doing so necessary. Triazolam is a benzodiazepine, meaning that it is a tranquilizer. Those suffering from a Triazolam addiction will inevitably experience severe symptoms of withdrawal upon abruptly ceased use.
Triazolam Abuse and Addiction
There are numerous symptoms associated with Triazolam abuse and addiction, including:
- Drowsiness
- Dizziness and a lack of coordination
- Lightheadedness
- Persistent headaches
- Nervousness and anxiety
- Tingling of the skin
- Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
- Continued Triazolam use despite negative personal consequences
- Continued Triazolam use despite negative emotional consequences
- Using more of the prescription medication than was prescribed by a medical professional
- Drug-seeking behavior, which – in the case of benzodiazepine abuse – sometimes includes “doctor shopping,” meaning that the individual will see more than one doctor at a time in hopes of acquiring more than one prescription
- A lack of interest in hobbies and activities that were previously enjoyed
- Separation from friends and family members/increased need for privacy
- Mood swings, typically marked by agitation and irritability

Symptoms associated with benzodiazepine withdrawal can be difficult when left untreated, sometimes resulting in life-threatening complications. In most cases, treating Triazolam addiction in a medical detox facility will require medically monitored drug tapering, meaning that the amount of the prescription will be slowly diminished until there is none left in the bloodstream. No matter how severe the addictive disorder has become and how potentially dangerous the withdrawal symptoms are, we will effectively treat them in a safe and secure medical environment.
