Chlordiazepoxide (C0008188)

Definition (NCI) A long-acting benzodiazepine with anxiolytic, sedative and hypnotic activity. Chlordiazepoxide exerts its effect by binding to the benzodiazepine site at the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor-chloride ionophore complex in the central nervous system (CNS). This leads to an increase in the opening of chloride channels, membrane hyperpolarization and increases the inhibitory effect of GABA on the CNS.
Definition (MSH) An anxiolytic benzodiazepine derivative with anticonvulsant, sedative, and amnesic properties. It has also been used in the symptomatic treatment of alcohol withdrawal.
Definition (CSP) anxiolytic benzodiazepine derivative with anticonvulsant, sedative, and amnesic properties; also used in the symptomatic treatment of alcohol withdrawal.
