flunitrazepam and Central Hypothyroidism

flunitrazepam has been researched along with Central Hypothyroidism in 2 studies

Flunitrazepam: A benzodiazepine with pharmacologic actions similar to those of DIAZEPAM that can cause ANTEROGRADE AMNESIA. Some reports indicate that it is used as a date rape drug and suggest that it may precipitate violent behavior. The United States Government has banned the importation of this drug.
flunitrazepam : A 1,4-benzodiazepinone that is nitrazepam substituted by a methyl group at position 1 and by a fluoro group at position 2'. It is a potent hypnotic, sedative, and amnestic drug used to treat chronic insomnia.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In rats rendered hyperthyroid by chronic treatment with L-triiodothyronine (T3) hormone there was a 21 and 27% decrease, respectively, in the number of binding sites for [3H]flunitrazepam ([3H]FNZ) and [3H]ethyl-beta-carboline-3-carboxylate ([3H]beta-CCE) without changes in affinity for the two ligands."3.67Benzodiazepine receptor and thyroid hormones: in vivo and in vitro modulation.
