No, not at all. Sodium benzoate may sound similar but it is completely different - it is a preservative, not a benzodiazepine. You will be fine.

There are other derivatives and what not as well aren't there?
But if that is the case wouldn't one need to look up each one to be sure?
Asking because I Do Not take benzos and yet it keeps showing up in my drug screens. I need to find the answer to Why
Thanks
