Quazepam
Quazepam (marketed under brand names Doral, Dormalin) is a benzodiazepine derivative drug developed by the Schering Corporation in the 1970s.〔US Patent 3845039〕 Quazepam is indicated for the treatment of insomnia including sleep induction and sleep maintenance. Quazepam induces impairment of motor function and has hypnotic and anticonvulsant properties with less overdose potential than other benzodiazepines. Quazepam is an effective hypnotic which induces and maintains sleep without disruption of the sleep architecture. Quazepam is a trifluoroalkyl type of benzodiazepine, like fletazepam, halazepam, triflubazam and Ro5-2904. Quazepam is unique amongst benzodiazepines in that it selectively targets the GABAA a1 sub unit receptors which are responsible for inducing sleep. Its mechanism of action is very similar to zolpidem and zaleplon in its pharmacology and can successfully substitute for zolpidem and zaleplon in animal studies. ==Indications== Quazepam is used for short-term treatment of insomnia related to sleep induction or sleep maintenance problems and has demonstrated superiority over other benzodiazepines such as temazepam. It had a fewer incidence of side effects than temazepam, including less sedation, amnesia, and less motor-impairment. Usual dosage is 7.5 to 15 mg orally at bedtime. Quazepam is effective as a premedication prior to surgery.
