Therapeutic Indications of midazolam
– Short-term treatment of insomnia
Benzodiazepines are only indicated when the disorder is severe, disabling or subjecting the individual to extreme
distress.
– Sedation in premedication before surgical or diagnostic procedures.
Dosage and Administration
Duration of treatment should be as short as possible. Generally the duration of treatment varies from a few days to
a maximum of 2 weeks. The tapering-off process should be tailored to the individual. Treatment with Dormicum should not be terminated abruptly
In certain cases extension beyond the maximum treatment period may be necessary; if so, it should not take place
without re-evaluation of the patient’s status. Owing to the rapid onset of action Dormicum tablets should be taken
immediately before going to sleep, and swallowed whole with fluid. Dormicum can be taken any time of the day, provided the patient is subsequently assured of at least 7 – 8 hours undisturbed sleep.
Dosage range: 7.5 – 15 mg
Treatment should be started with the lowest recommended dose.
Contraindications of midazolam
Dormicum must not be used in patients with:
– Severe respiratory insufficiency;
– Severe hepatic impairment (benzodiazepines are not indicated to treat patients with severe hepatic impairments as they may cause encephalopathy);

Drug Abuse and Dependence
Dependence
Use of Dormicum may lead to the development of physical and psychological dependence. The risk of dependence increases with dose and duration of treatment; it is also greater in patients with a medical history of alcohol and/or drug abuse.

Withdrawal symptoms may consist of headaches, diarrhea, muscle pain, extreme anxiety, tension, restlessness, confusion and irritability. In severe cases the following symptoms may occur: derealization, depersonalization, hyperacusis, numbness and tingling of the extermities, hypersensitivity to light, noise and physical contact, hallucinations or convulsions.
Ability to Drive and Use Machines
Sedation, amnesia, impaired concentration and impaired muscular function may adversely affect the ability to drive or to use machines. Prior to receiving Dormicum, the patient should be warned not to drive a vehicle or operate a machine until completely recovered. The physician should decide when these activities may be resumed.
Overdose of Dormicum
Benzodiazepines commonly cause drowsiness, ataxia, dysarthria and nystagmus. Overdose of Dormicum is seldom
life-threatening, if the drug is taken alone, but may lead to areflexia, apnea, hypotonia, hypotension, cardiorespiratory depression and rare cases to coma. Coma, if it occurs, usually lasts a few hours but it may be more protracted and cyclical, particularly in elderly patients.
