We performed a pharmacoepidemiological study on triazolam dependence with typical doses in out-patients of Fukui Medical School Hospital. We investigated the prescriptions (duration of treatment and total dose prescribed) for patients administered triazolam.The patients were classified according to the prescription pattern of this drug, Group 1: patients who had been prescribed triazolam daily, Group 2: those who had been allowed to take triazolam when they cannot sleep.Approximately 40% of all the patients had been prescribed triazolam for 8 months or longer, and were judged to be normal dose dependence. The prevalence of this dependence was apparently higher in group 1 than in group 2.
