nitrazepam
nitrazepam
Noun
Nitrazepam is a potent sedative-hypnotic used in clinical settings to treat severe insomnia. Because of its high potency and the risk of dependence, it is strictly regulated as a controlled substance and is typically prescribed only for short-term use to avoid tolerance.
As a chemical compound and medication, the term is treated as an uncountable noun. It refers to the substance itself rather than individual pills or doses, which would instead be referred to as tablets or capsules.
