==The Committee on the Review of Medicines==
The Committee on the Review of Medicines (UK) carried out a review into benzodiazepines due to significant concerns of tolerance, ] and ] problems and other adverse effects. The committee found that benzodiazepines do not have any ] or ] properties and are therefore unsuitable treatments for conditions such as depression, ] and ]. Benzodiazepines are also not beneficial in the treatment of ] due to a lack of efficacy. The committee also recommended against benzodiazepines being used in the treatment of ] or ] in children. The committee was in agreement with the ] (USA) and the conclusions of a study carried out by the ] and the ] (USA) that there was little evidence that long term use of benzodiazepine hypnotics were benefitial in the treatment of insomnia due to the development of tolerance. Benzodiazepines tended to lose their sleep promoting properties within 3 – 14 days of continuous use and in the treatment of anxiety the committee found that there was little convincing evidence that benzodiazepines retained efficacy in the treatment of anxiety after 4 months continuous use due to the development of tolerance. The committee found that the regular use of benzodiazepines caused the development of dependence characterised by tolerance to the therapeutic effects of benzodiazepines and the development of the ] including symptoms such as ], ], ], ], ], and ] upon cessation of benzodiazepine use. Withdrawal symptoms tended to develop within 24 hours on the cessation of a short acting benzodiazepine and within 3 – 10 days after the cessation of a more long acting benzodiazepine. Withdrawal effects could occur after treatment lasting only 2 weeks at therapeutic dose levels however withdrawal effects tended to occur with habitual use beyond 2 weeks and were more likely the higher the dose. The withdrawal symptoms may appear to be similar to the original condition. The committee recommended that all benzodiazepine treatment be withdrawn gradually and recommended that benzodiazepine treatment be used only in carefully selected patients and that therapy be limited to short term use only. It was noted in the review that alcohol can potentiate the ] depressant effects of benzodiazepines and should be avoided. The central nervous system depressant effects of benzodiazepines may make driving or operating machinery dangerous and the elderly are more prone to these adverse effects. In the ] high single doses or repeated low doses have been reported to produce ], poor sucking, and ] in the ] and irregularities in the ] heart. Benzodiazepines should be avoided in ]. Withdrawal from benzodiazepines should be gradual as abrupt withdrawal from high doses of benzodiazepines may cause ], ], ], or a condition resembling ].

7-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1-methyl-5-phenyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine

The second way of making medazepam consists of the initial reduction of the ]

The third method of making medazepam consists of a new way of making 7-chloro-2,3-

Finally, a method of making medazepam from 4-chloro-N-methylaniline is suggested. The

Medazepam is a drug that is a benzodiazepine derivative. It possesses anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, sedative, and skeletal muscle relaxant properties. It is known by the following brand names: Azepamid, Nobrium, Tranquirax (mixed with bevonium), Rudotel, Raporan, Ansilan and Mezapam. Medazepam is a long-acting benzodiazepine drug. The half-life of medazepam is 36–200 hours.

Pharmacology

Medazepam acts as a prodrug to nordazepam. Benzodiazepine drugs including medazepam increase the inhibitory processes in the cerebral cortex by allosteric modulation of the GABA receptor. Benzodiazepines may also act via micromolar benzodiazepine-binding sites as Ca channel blockers and significantly inhibited depolarization-sensitive calcium uptake in experiments with cell components from rat brains. This has been conjectured as a mechanism for high dose effects against seizures in a study. It has major active benzodiazepine metabolites, which gives it a more prolonged therapeutic effect after administration.
