Unique Ingredient Identifier: 6GOW6DWN2A

Background: Oxazepam is an intermediate-acting, 3-hydroxybenzodiazepine used in the treatment of alcohol withdrawal and anxiety disorders. Oxazepam, like related 3-hydroxybenzodiazepine lorazepam, is considered less susceptible to pharmacokinetic variability based on patient-specific factors (e.g. age, liver disease) - this feature is advantageous as compared to other benzodiazepines, and is likely owing in part to oxazepam's relatively simple metabolism. It is an active metabolite of both diazepam and temazepam and undergoes very little biotransformation following absorption, making it unlikely to participate in pharmacokinetic interactions.

Indication: Oxazepam is indicated for the management of anxiety disorders and for the short-term relief of symptoms of anxiety. It may also be used in the management of alcohol withdrawal symptoms.
