Etizolam is a thienodiazepine anxiolytic which is said to have lower dependence potential than other benzodiazepines. We report a case of etizolam dependence in a young male with social anxiety disorder and moderate depression. This case report highlights the fact that the same caution be exercised while prescribing etizolam with respect to its potential to cause dependence as with any other benzodiazepine.
依替唑仑是一种噻吩二氮䓬类抗焦虑药，据说其产生依赖性的可能性低于其他苯二氮䓬类药物。我们报告了一例患有社交焦虑障碍和中度抑郁症的年轻男性依替唑仑依赖病例。本病例报告强调了一个事实，即开具依替唑仑处方时，应像对待任何其他苯二氮䓬类药物一样，对其导致依赖的可能性保持同样的谨慎。
