Oxazepam, 7-chloro-1,3-dihydro-3-hydroxy-5-phenyl-2H-1,4-benzodiazpin-2-one (Serax), isan active metabolite of both chlordiazepoxide and diazepamand can be considered a prototype for the 3-hydroxy benzo-diazepines. It is much more polar than diazepam. Oxazepam is rapidlyinactivated to glucuronidated metabolites that are excretedin the urine. Thus, the half-life of oxazepam is about 4 to 8hours, and it is marketed as a short-acting anxiolytic. As aresult, its cumulative effects with chronic therapy are muchless than with long-acting benzodiazepine such as chlordiazepoxideand diazepam.
