What is Temazepam 20 mg?

Temazepam 20 mg is a benzodiazepine available by prescription, indicated for the short-term treatment of sleep disturbances such as insomnia. It belongs to the sedative-hypnotic class and is regulated as a controlled substance due to its potential for dependence and misuse. Use is limited to short-term therapy and always requires a prescription for safe and legal dispensing.

Therapeutic Uses

Temazepam is primarily prescribed for the short-term treatment of insomnia that significantly disrupts daily functioning. It is effective in reducing sleep latency and minimizing nighttime awakenings. In some cases, it may also be used preoperatively to reduce anxiety and promote sedation before surgery. Treatment duration is generally restricted to 7 to 14 days to prevent tolerance or dependency.

Mechanism of Action

This medicine works by boosting the action of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the brain’s primary inhibitory neurotransmitter responsible for calming neural activity. Temazepam binds to the GABA-A receptor complex, enhancing neuronal inhibition which results in sedation, reduced anxiety, and muscle relaxation. By reducing excessive brain activity, it supports natural sleep without significantly disrupting REM sleep.

Safety & Dependency Risks

Although effective for short-term use, Temazepam can lead to dependence if taken over an extended period. Gradual dose tapering is recommended to minimize withdrawal symptoms such as rebound insomnia, anxiety, or restlessness. This medication should not be shared or used without medical supervision. As a controlled drug, a valid prescription and regular monitoring are required.

Side Effects

Typical side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, fatigue, and impaired motor coordination. Some users may experience confusion, mood disturbances, or temporary memory issues. In rare cases, especially when combined with other central nervous system depressants, more serious reactions like respiratory depression can occur. Older adults may require dosage adjustments due to increased sensitivity to sedatives.

Storage Instructions

These capsules should be stored at room temperature, ideally between 15°C and 25°C, in a dry and secure environment. Keep them in their original container to protect against moisture, heat, and light. Always store the medication out of the reach of children and do not use it beyond the stated expiration date.

Summary

Typical adverse effects include fatigue, lightheadedness, drowsiness, and reduced coordination. As a member of the benzodiazepine class, Temazepam promotes sleep by enhancing GABA activity in the central nervous system. While effective for short-term use, it may cause tolerance or dependence if misused or taken beyond the prescribed duration.
