A 58-year-old man is on the surgical ward on the second day after an elective inguinal hernia repair. He is anxious and sweating, his hands tremble, and he has twice asked the nurse who the people standing at the end of his bed are. His pulse is 112/min and blood pressure 168/96 mmHg; he is afebrile and the wound is clean. He is fully oriented and his abdomen is soft. His wife says he drinks a bottle of wine and several beers every evening and last drank the night before surgery. Which one of the following regimens should be started to control his symptoms?
