Objective. The aim of our study was to examine the pattern of benzodiazepines' use in young adults in the municipality of Bijelo Polje, Montenegro. Methods. The investigation was conducted as a cross-sectional study which involved 80 subjects of both gender aged between 18 and 40 years. The data were collected using self-administered survey questionnaire, consisted of 14 closed ended questions related to sociodemographic characteristics and behavioural patterns with benzodiazepines' consumption. Results. More than half of study population confirmed the usage of benzodiazepines (55%). There were statistically significant differences in the duration of drug use so that the most frequent period was 1-5 years (p= 0.025). Study participants claimed that they often used benzodiazepines optionally (43.18%), and in some stressful events (29.56%). The manner of drug supply varied significantly (p= 0.010). The majority of study population applied a drug dose of less than one milligram per day (22.72%), less than 2 milligrams per day in stressful circumstances (25%). The most common way of drug supplying was via prescription (36.36%) and taking it from family members (27.29%%). The analysis of the awareness of possible drug addiction indicated significant differences in attitudes of participants (p < 0.001). Conclusion. A high frequency of Benzodiazepine use with a specific common pattern in consumption requires the improvement of health policy measures in the area of the drug abuse and possible development of addiction.
