The results reported in this review show that prenatal and/or postnatal administration of benzodiazepines, at dose levels below those associated with overt signs of neurotoxicity, produces both short- and long-term alterations in rats. Most of these behavioral changes are characterized by altered activity patterns and emotional/motivational responsiveness to environmental challenges.
