MedKoo Cat#: 319813 | Name: Remimazolam

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Remimazolam, also known as CNS-7056, is a benzodiazepine derivative drug, developed by PAION, in collaboration with Japanese licensee Ono Pharmaceutical as an alternative to the short-acting imidazobenzodiazepine midazolam, for use in induction of anaesthesia and conscious sedation for minor invasive procedures. Remimazolam was found to be both faster acting and shorter lasting than midazolam, and human clinical trials showed a faster recovery time and predictable, consistent pharmacokinetics, suggesting some advantages over existing drugs for these applications. Remimazolam was approved in 2020
