7-chloro-5-(2-fluorophenyl)-1,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one
Norflurazepam is an active metabolite of flurazepam and acts as a benzodiazepine with anxiolytic, sedative, and muscle relaxant properties through modulation of the GABA-A receptor. It has a long half-life, which can lead to prolonged effects. The substance is being pharmacologically investigated for the treatment of anxiety disorders and sleep disturbances. Due to its potential for dependence and sedative effects, caution is advised.
