Haloxazolam (marketed in Japan under the brand name Somelin), is a drug which is a benzodiazepine derivative.[2][3][4] It has similar hypnotic properties as the benzodiazepine drugs triazolam, temazepam, and flunitrazepam and as such is indicated for the treatment of insomnia.[5] A study in cats comparing estazolam and haloxazolam found that haloxazolam only affects gamma motor neurons, whereas estazolam affects both alpha and gamma motor neurons.[6]
