“…These molecules can have negative effects on the cognitive and motor functions, favoring falls and fractures with unproved benefits from long-term use [37, 38]. Bourgeois et al and de Souto Barreto et al identified a higher benzodiazepine use (50 % or 53.4 %) among the institutionalized Belgian and French elderly, correlated with the presence of pain syndromes and polypharmacy, but the administration of long half-life molecules or of unadjusted dosages represented potential DRP common to our subgroup [39, 40]. Among the ambulatory 70–89 years old Norwegian population, Neutel et al found a higher benzodiazepine use that the one identified in our subgroup, with a 12.3 % prevalence of inappropriate use of benzodiazepines as hypnotics or anxiolytics [41].…”

“…Eine weitere Studie in Quebec fand eine chronische BZD-Einnahme ( > 205 Tage im Jahr, ohne Z-Drugs) bei 32 % der ab 65-Jährigen, bei den Hochbetagten (ab 75 Jahre) war die Verordnungsdauer länger [22]. In Altenheimen ist der chronische Gebrauch besonders ausgeprägt: in belgischen Heimen fand man bei 50 % der Bewohner eine chronische Einnahme [23], bei französischen Altenheimbewohnern (Durchschnittsalter 86 Jahre) wurde eine Stichtagsprävalenz von 53,4 % festgestellt [24] (jeweils BZD und Z-Drugs). Die Autoren der niederländischen Depressions-und Angststudie NESDA konkludieren, dass es gerade die körperlich wie geistig Gebrechlichsten sind, denen am häufigsten BZD verordnet werden [25].…”
