Clotiazepam (marketed under brand name Clozan, Distensan, Trecalmo, Rize, Rizen and Veratran) is a thienodiazepine drug which is a benzodiazepine analog. The clotiazepam molecule differs from most other benzodiazepines in that the benzene ring has been replaced by a thiophene ring.[1] It possesses anxiolytic,[2] skeletal muscle relaxant,[3] anticonvulsant, sedative properties.[4] Stage 2 NREM sleep is significantly increased by clotiazepam.[5]
Indications
Clotiazepam has been trialed and found to be effective in the short-term management of anxiety.[6] Clotiazepam is also used as a premedicant in minor surgery in France and Japan, where the drug is commercially available under the brand names Veratran and Rize, respectively.[7][8]
Pharmacokinetics
Single dose pharmacokinetics of 5 mg clotiazepam drops, oral tablets, and sublingual tablets in a cross-over study in six healthy volunteers (median age 28 years) was conducted. The formulations had similar systemic availability. Compared with oral tablets the sublingual route gave a lower peak concentration and a delayed peak time, while drops gave a greater maximum concentration with a similar peak time. The use of drops is suggested for a more marked initial effect and the sublingual route for easier administration, especially in the elderly.[9]
Pharmacology
Similar to other benzodiazepines clotiazepam has anxiolytic, sedative, hypnotic, amnesic, anticonvulsant and muscle relaxant pharmacological properties.[4] Clotiazepam binds to the benzodiazepine site of the GABAA receptor where it acts as a full agonist; this action results in an enhanced GABA inhibitory effect at the GABAA receptor which results in the pharmacological effects of clotiazepam.[10]
Clotiazepam has a relatively short elimination half-life and is less prone to accumulation after repeated dosing compared to longer-acting benzodiazepine agents. It is metabolised via oxidation.[11] Clotiazepam is metabolised to hydroxy-clotiazepam and desmethyl-clotiazepam. After oral ingestion of a single 5 mg dose of clotiazepam by three healthy volunteers the drug was rapidly absorbed.[12] The elimination half-life of the drug and its metabolites range from 6.5 hours to 18 hours. Clotiazepam is 99 percent bound to plasma protein.[12] In elderly men the elimination half-life is longer and in elderly women the volume of distribution is increased.[13] Individuals with liver impairment have a reduced volume of distribution as well as a reduced total clearance of clotiazepam; renal impairment does not effect the kinetics of clotiazepam.[14]
Side effects
Drowsiness and asthenia are common side effects.[15] There has been a report of hepatitis caused by clotiazepam.[16]
Abuse
Clotiazepam is a recognised drug of abuse.[17]
