Answer:

Flumazenil

Pharmacology / Anaesthesia

Last Updated: 4th April 2019

Flumazenil is a benzodiazepine antagonist used for the reversal of the sedative effects of benzodiazepines after anaesthesia, sedation and similar procedures.

Flumazenil has a shorter half-life and duration of action than diazepam or midazolam so patients may become resedated.

Flumazenil should not be used in life-threatening conditions (e.g. raised intracranial pressure, status epilepticus) controlled by benzodiazepines as this would render further treatment, if required, ineffective.
