Dry July
The Aurora Healthcare GP Fact Sheet for Dry July 2025 provides a comprehensive guide for general practitioners to identify, manage, and support patients with substance use disorders, especially during a time of increased public awareness. It highlights the prevalence and risks of alcohol, illicit drugs, and prescription medication misuse, and emphasizes the importance of early intervention, dual diagnosis care, and appropriate escalation to specialist services.

This GP fact sheet from Currumbin Clinic outlines the risks associated with long-term benzodiazepine use—including dependence, withdrawal, and a condition known as Benzodiazepine-Induced Neurological Dysfunction (BIND)—and introduces safer, evidence-based alternatives for managing anxiety. It highlights non-addictive strategies such as breathing techniques, mind-body practices, and medications like propranolol, offering practical guidance for clinicians and patients seeking sustainable mental health support without relying on benzodiazepines.
