No, and no drug can: produce ADDICTION, but MANY can produce physical dependency. These two conditions may be related, but they are not the same. Many people develop substance use disorders to drugs that do NOT produce physical dependency, and many patients who have physical dependency on a therapeutic agent are NOT addicted. Discontinuation of metaxolone is not associated with regular withdrawal symptoms/signs.
