MOIC has worked with the Health & Social Care Board (HSCB) to evaluate benzodiazepine reduction clinics. In this service, 836 patients from across five GP practices were given additional support to reduce or stop their benzodiazepine or z-drug. Some 65% successfully reduced and stopped their medication and a further 24% were stabilised on a lower dose or continued on a reduction programme.
