Diagnosing drug addiction (substance use disorder) requires a thorough evaluation and often includes an assessment by a psychiatrist, a psychologist, or a licensed alcohol and drug counselor. Blood, urine or other lab tests are used to assess drug use, but they're not a diagnostic test for addiction.
Sedative, hypnotics, or anxiolytic use disorder is a misuse of sedative, hypnotics, or anxiolytic substances. Sedatives, hypnotics, or anxiolytics can be obtained legally and illegally. The addiction of these substances often occurs together with other drugs of abuse.

The ICD code F132 is used to code Benzodiazepine dependence. Benzodiazepine dependence or benzodiazepine addiction is when one has developed one or more of either tolerance, withdrawal symptoms, drug seeking behaviors, such as continued use despite harmful effects, and maladaptive pattern of substance use, according to the DSM-IV. ...
In the case of benzodiazepine dependence, however, the continued use seems to be associated with the avoidance of unpleasant withdrawal reaction rather than from the pleasurable effects of the drug. Benzodiazepine dependence develops with long-term use, even at low therapeutic doses, without the described dependence behavior.
Insight into Xanax abuse comes, in part, from research findings and clinical feedback on what occurs when a person overdoses on Xanax. There appears to be a general dearth of research that reflects the day-to-day reality of people who are currently addicted to a drug. For this information, it is often helpful to read online forums.
When a person begins to abuse Xanax, there will likely be noticeable changes in their behavior. Per Medical News Today, the following are some of the main behavioral symptoms and signs of Xanax abuse:
The distinction between “abuse” and “dependence” was based on the concept of abuse as an early or mild phase of abnormal substance use and dependence as a later and more severe manifestation.
Withdrawal can be prevented by tapering doses of benzodiazepines or phenobarbital; it is recommended to convert the current dose of a short-acting benzodiazepine to the equivalent dose of longer-acting diazepam and then decrease the dose in 2-week decrements to 75, 50, 25, 12.5 and 0 per cent of that.
Benzodiazepine intoxication or overdose can be reversed with flumazenil, which competitively inhibits the benzodiazepine binding sites on the GABAA receptor and thereby reverses the effects of the drugs; it does not always reverse respiratory depression, and can cause seizures, particularly in patients with epilepsy or who overdose with tricyclic antidepressants also (Veariah, Dyas, Cooper, Routledge & Thompson, 2012). Barbiturate overdose may require dialysis, but the rate of barbiturate excretion can be increased by alkalinizing the urine with intravenous sodium bicarbonate, followed by a tapering dose of phenobarbital (Kawasaki, Jacepraro & Rastegar, 2012).
The ICD code F131 is used to code Effects of long-term benzodiazepine use. The effects of long-term benzodiazepine use include drug dependence as well as the possibility of adverse effects on cognitive function, physical health, and mental health.
Due to these increasing physical and mental symptoms from long-term use of benzodiazepines, slowly withdrawing from benzodiazepines is recommended for many long-term users. Not everyone, however, experiences problems with long-term use. Specialty: Psychiatry. Source: Wikipedia.
Benzodiazepines are generally effective when used therapeutically in the short-term. Most of the problems associated with benzodiazepines result from their long-term use. There are significant physical, mental and social risks associated with the long-term use of benzodiazepines.
