[A scale for evaluating withdrawal symptoms induced by anxiolytic agents].
A scale to evaluate the withdrawal syndrome induced by tranquilizers (TWS) is proposed to distinguish between anxiety induced symptoms and withdrawal induced symptoms. This scale was established and validated by Lader, the french translation was performed by the author. The most frequently observed symptoms during a withdrawal syndrome are physical tiredness, headache, vertigo and tremor but other symptoms are evaluated by this tranquilizers withdrawal scale.
