N-Desalkylflurazepam (also known as norflurazepam) is a benzodiazepine analog and an active metabolite of several other benzodiazepine drugs including flurazepam, [2] flutoprazepam, [3] fludiazepam, [4] midazolam, [5] flutazolam, [6] quazepam, [7] and ethyl loflazepate. [8] [9] It is long-acting, prone to accumulation, and binds unselectively to the various benzodiazepine receptor subtypes. [7] It has been sold as a designer drug from 2016 onward. [10]
