Temazepam: A benzodiazepine that acts as a GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID modulator and anti-anxiety agent.

Catatonia: A neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by one or more of the following essential features: immobility, mutism, negativism (active or passive refusal to follow commands), mannerisms, stereotypies, posturing, grimacing, excitement, echolalia, echopraxia, muscular rigidity, and stupor; sometimes punctuated by sudden violent outbursts, panic, or hallucinations. This condition may be associated with psychiatric illnesses (e.g., SCHIZOPHRENIA; MOOD DISORDERS) or organic disorders (NEUROLEPTIC MALIGNANT SYNDROME; ENCEPHALITIS, etc.). (From DSM-IV, 4th ed, 1994; APA, Thesaurus of Psychological Index Terms, 1994)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We encountered catatonia in a man with neurosyphilis after increasing aripiprazole and valproate (drugs reported to improve catatonia) and reducing doxycycline and temazepam dosages, consistent with identified dopamine D2, serotonin 5HT2, and 5HT1a (aripiprazole), GABA-B (valproate), glutamatergic NMDA (aripiprazole, valproate, doxycycline), and GABA-A (aripiprazole, temazepam) mechanisms of catatonia."3.75Catatonia and CPK elevation in neurosyphilis: role of plural pharmacodynamic mechanisms.
