The use of sedative drugs, known as benzodiazepines, is increasing.
More and more people are using them to help with anxiety, stress and sleep problems.
Most are obtained legitimately, with a prescription, and their use monitored by a doctor or other health professional.
But an increasing number of people are using illicit so-called ‘street benzos’ or ‘street Valium’ - some of which are diverted from legitimate prescriptions and some purchased online.
This resource will highlight the problems of using illicit or prescribed benzodiazepines and provide harm reduction information and advice for anyone who needs to know more about the risks.
Includes information on:
- What Are Benzodiazepines?
- Types Of Benzodiazepines?
- Side Effects

Smart drugs leaflet
More and more people are using so-called smart drugs, also known as nootropics. They’ve become increasingly popular among students who hopeto boost brainpower, focus and memory, in an attempt to do well in their studies and improve their academic performance.
More than 20 per cent of students have used stimulant drugs, according to a recent Loughborough University survey of 54 British universities.
This smart drugs leaflet focuses on the two most commonly misused as smart drugs - modafinil and Ritalin -usually prescribed to treat ADHD and sleep disorders like narcolepsy.
The resource details important information to help the user to understand what they’re taking and includes the following:
- how they work
- their appearance
- their effects
- onset and duration
- how they can be detected in the body
- the law.
It goes on to highlight the risks associated with using smart drugs:
- irregular sleep patterns
- focus shift
- potential risks during pregnancy and breastfeeding
- dependency and withdrawal
- purchasing drugs online
- impaired driving.
It gives clear advice on reducing the risks associated with using Ritalin and modafinil as smart drugs.
The leaflet suggests study techniques to improve academic performance as an alternative to ‘reaching for the pills’.
It includes what to do in an emergency if someone suffers severe symptoms after taking smart drugs, and lists helpline resources for further support and information related to drug use and mental health.
