Question on benzo belly


[Ma...]

Recommended Posts

I had pain and other problems with my stomach a couple months before I decided to get off the xanax.  I don't think I was in tolerance, but could that have been benzo belly even then?  Cause my stomach feels the same way now.  Sharp pain, blown up etc;  so can u have benzo belly just from taking them?

Hi Mary,  I had stomach issues when I hit tolerance level.  Benzo belly unfortunately seems to be a common symptom.  I had bloating, pain, and other GI issues throughout my taper and in recovery.  I had various tests done, colonoscopy, which ruled out other causes.  It’s a horrid symptom but it does  go with time.

 

If you want use the search, we have many threads discussing this topic, here are a couple.

 

Benzo Belly- what is it?

 

How long does Benzo Belly last??
