Chemical compound From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fludiazepam,[2] marketed under the brand name Erispan (エリスパン)[3][4] is a potent benzodiazepine and 2ʹ-fluoro derivative of diazepam,[5] originally developed by Hoffmann-La Roche in the 1960s.[6] It is marketed in Japan and Taiwan. [citation needed] It exerts its pharmacological properties via enhancement of GABAergic inhibition.[7] Fludiazepam has 4 times more binding affinity for benzodiazepine receptors than diazepam.[8] It possesses anxiolytic,[9][10][11] anticonvulsant, sedative, hypnotic and skeletal muscle relaxant properties.[12] Fludiazepam has been used recreationally.[13]
