Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Oct-1999
Neuroleptic-induced akathisia is one of the most common and distressing early-onset adverse effects of antipsychotic drugs, being associated with poor compliance with treatment, and thus, ultimately, to an increase risk of relapse. This review assesses th - Benzodiazepines for psychosis‐induced aggression or agitation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Dec-2017
Acute psychotic illness, especially when associated with agitated or violent behaviour, can require urgent pharmacological tranquillisation or sedation. In several countries, clinicians often use benzodiazepines (either alone or in combination with antips - Benzodiazepines for restless legs syndrome

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a common disease affecting about 5% to 15% of the population. Symptoms of RLS can be severe in a minority of and can have a major impact on sleep, mostly sleep initiation, and quality of life. Benzodiazepines are drugs that - Benzodiazepines for schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 14-Nov-2012
Because of the high number of people with schizophrenia not responding adequately to monotherapy with antipsychotic agents, the evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of additional medication was examined in a number of clinical trials. One approach t - Benzodiazepines for the relief of breathlessness in advanced malignant and non‐malignant diseases in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Oct-2016
This is an updated version of the original Cochrane review published in Issue 1, 2010, on 'Benzodiazepines for the relief of breathlessness in advanced malignant and non-malignant diseases in adults'. Breathlessness is one of the most common symptoms expe - Benzodiazepines for treatment of patients with delirium excluding those who are cared for in an intensive care unit
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Feb-2020
Delirium is a very common condition associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and costs. Current critical care guidelines recommend first and foremost the use of nonpharmacological strategies in both the prevention and treatment of delirium. Pharm - Benzodiazepines versus placebo for panic disorder in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Mar-2019
Panic disorder is characterised by recurrent unexpected panic attacks consisting of a wave of intense fear that reaches a peak within a few minutes. Panic disorder is a common disorder, with an estimated lifetime prevalence of 1% to 5% in the general popu - Benzo‐pyrones for reducing and controlling lymphoedema of the limbs
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Apr-2004
Lymphoedema is the accumulation of excess fluid in the body caused by obstruction of the lymphatic drainage mechanisms. Treatment with Benzo-pyrones is thought to reduce fluid forming in the subcutaneous tissues and reduce pain and discomfort of the affec - Beta blockers for peripheral arterial disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Sep-2013
Beta (ß) blockers are indicated for use in coronary artery disease (CAD). However, optimal therapy for people with CAD accompanied by intermittent claudication has been controversial because of the presumed peripheral haemodynamic consequences of beta blo - Beta lactam antibiotic monotherapy versus beta lactam‐aminoglycoside antibiotic combination therapy for sepsis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Jan-2014
Optimal antibiotic treatment for sepsis is imperative. Combining a beta lactam antibiotic with an aminoglycoside antibiotic may provide certain advantages over beta lactam monotherapy. - Beta radiation for glaucoma surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Jun-2012
The outcome of glaucoma surgery can be affected by the rate at which the surgical wound heals. Beta radiation has been proposed as a rapid and simple treatment to slow down the healing response. - Beta2-adrenoceptor agonists for dysmenorrhoea
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Apr-2012
Dysmenorrhoea is a common gynaecological complaint that can affect as many as 50% of premenopausal women, 10% of whom suffer severely enough to be rendered incapacitated for one to three days during each menstrual cycle. Primary dysmenorrhoea is where wom - Beta2‐agonists for acute cough or a clinical diagnosis of acute bronchitis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Sep-2015
The diagnosis of acute bronchitis is made on clinical grounds and a variety of clinical definitions have been used. There are no clearly effective treatments for the cough of acute bronchitis. Beta2-agonists are often prescribed, perhaps because clinician - Beta2-agonists for exercise-induced asthma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Sep-2013
It is well known that physical exercise can trigger asthma symptoms and can induce bronchial obstruction in people without clinical asthma. International guidelines on asthma management recommend the use of beta2-agonists at any stage of the disease. At p - Beta-adrenergic blockers for perioperative cardiac risk reduction in people undergoing vascular surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Jan-2015
