Cinolazepam[2] (marketed under the brand name Gerodorm)[3] is a drug which is a benzodiazepine derivative. It possesses anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, sedative and skeletal muscle relaxant properties. Due to its strong sedative properties, it is primarily used as a hypnotic.
It was patented in 1978 and came into medical use in 1992.[4] Cinolazepam is not approved for sale in the United States or Canada.
