<h5><b>Benzodiazepines</b></h5>
<p>The final video and imagery in the artifact lesson is benzodiazepine toxicity. In this case, the individual is taking Xanax on an “as needed” basis for pain, which is enough to alter the EEG. When taking a benzodiazepine we see an increase in the amount
    of GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, which creates a global beta spindling, as we see in this video.</p>

<p>Benzodiazepine toxicity will lead to a quantitative EEG that has a copious amount of high amplitude beta. Since this is a medicaqtion side-effect, neurofeedback and neuromodulation will not help to reduce the amount of high amplitude beta we see in the</p>
