Flurazepam is a benzodiazepine that carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and mood changes. Ref: Flurazepam Information Are you on any other medications? ## There are other sleep meds available, I believe Dalmane (brand name of Flurazepam by Roche) was the very first benzo hypnotic (sleeping pill). Is Halcion still available? Then there's Doral (Quazepam) and Pro-Som (Estazolam). They don't make anything good anymore l...

Flurazepam has anybody had problems cutting back on this drug? ## It really depends on how much and how long you have been taking it. Our bodies can become dependent on anything that we ingest on a regular basis for a long period of time. It doesn't matter if it is your morning coffee or a Diet Coke with lunch. Stopping anything like this abruptly, will result in some withdrawal symptoms, the severity depends, as I said, on how much you used and how long you have been using it. This drug is a Benzodiazepine derivative, so it is addictive in itself, so if you have been on it for a long period of time, you will more than likely experience adverse effects if you stop taking it cold turkey.
