    Notes: Summary The passage of midazolam, a new benzodiazepine derivative with highly water-soluble salts, into cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was studied after a single oral dose of 15 mg (n=23), a single i.m. injection of 0.075 or 0.150 mg/kg (n=8), or a single i.v. dose of 0.075 mg/kg (n=26). Contrary to previous studies of diazepam and flunitrazepam, the rapid clinical effect of midazolam cannot be explained by rapid passage into human lumbar CSF. In only four cases following intravenous injection was there a measurable amount of drug in lumbar CSF (lower limit of assay sensitivity=2 ng/ml). After both oral (n=10) and intramuscular (n=8) administration, midazolam was rapidly absorbed, with attainment of the peak serum level after about 0.5 h. The pharmacokinetic parameters following i.v. injection of midazolam (n=6) explain its rapid but brief duration of action.

    Notes: The effects of oral midazolam or intramuscular atropine and pethidine used as premedication in two groups of 35 children over 5 years of age were studied. There was some evidence that the anxiolytic effect of midazolam was rather better than that of atropine plus pethidine, but, in other respects, subjective assessments in the two patient groups were similar. Intramuscular atropine caused tachycardia and subjective side-effects, nevertheless children appear to require anticholinergics during premedication because of excessive salivary secretion, especially during extubation. Oral midazolam is a new anxiolytic drug which can be used as an alternative to existing premedicant drugs, but, in children, it should still be combined with an anticholinergic agent. No correlation between serum levels of midazolam or atropine and their clinical effects was found.

    Notes: In a double-blind randomised study midazolam 15 mg and flunitrazepam 2 mg caused a significantly better night's sleep than placebo. Midazolam had a moderate sedative effect the following morning but, in other respects studied, no residual effects were found. In contrast, flunitrazepam decreased both the degree of apprehension and excitement the following morning. Flunitrazepam also inhibited salivary secretion and caused less cardiovascular changes than placebo or midazolam. The dose of thiopentone needed for induction of anaesthesia was significantly lower in those given flunitrazepam. The results show that midazolam is a potent sedative agent with a short duration of action.
