✅ Description:
Indications
- Midazolam is used to treat insomnia for a short period of time.

Pharmacology
The activities of benzodiazepines such as midazolam are intervened through the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric corrosive (GABA), which is one of the major inhibitory neurotransmitters within the central anxious framework. Benzodiazepines increment the movement of GABA, in this manner creating a steadying impact, unwinding skeletal muscles, and actuating rest, anesthesia, and amnesia. Benzodiazepines tie to the benzodiazepine location on GABA-A receptors, which potentiates the impacts of GABA by expanding the recurrence of chloride channel opening. These receptors have been recognized in numerous body tissues counting the heart and skeletal muscle, in spite of the fact that basically show up to be displayed within the central apprehensive framework.
