Triazolam is a short-acting benzodiazepine used primarily for the treatment of insomnia. It is indicated for short-term management of sleep disorders and is not recommended for long-term use due to dependence and tolerance risks. Triazolam is still available in some countries but its use is restricted or discontinued in others due to safety concerns.
Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic parameters reported for healthy adult volunteers (male and female), age 19-38 years, after a single oral dose.
