The study found that benzodiazepine use for 3 months or more was associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease of up to 51%. The longer the exposure to benzodiazepines, the greater the risk of Alzheimer's. Long-acting benzodiazepines were also found to increase risk more than short-acting benzodiazepines.
