Study, June/16: Multimorbidity and use of benzodiazepines in Iceland

The full title of this study is "Multimorbidity and use of hypnotic and anxiolytic drugs: cross-sectional and follow-up study in primary healthcare in Iceland". As we've seen in studies coming from around the world, over-prescription of benzodiazepines is a problem everywhere. The concluding statement urges "greater caution" on the part of family doctors with respect to prescribing these medications.
