oxazepam and Muscle Contraction

oxazepam has been researched along with Muscle Contraction in 5 studies

Oxazepam: A benzodiazepine used in the treatment of anxiety, alcohol withdrawal, and insomnia.
oxazepam : A 1,4-benzodiazepinone that is 1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one substituted by a chloro group at position 7, a hydroxy group at position 3 and phenyl group at position 5.

Muscle Contraction: A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.
