triazolam and Aging

triazolam has been researched along with Aging in 15 studies

Triazolam: A short-acting benzodiazepine used in the treatment of insomnia. Some countries temporarily withdrew triazolam from the market because of concerns about adverse reactions, mostly psychological, associated with higher dose ranges. Its use at lower doses with appropriate care and labeling has been reaffirmed by the FDA and most other countries.

Aging: The gradual irreversible changes in structure and function of an organism that occur as a result of the passage of time.

"Aging alters many aspects of circadian rhythmicity, including responsivity to phase-shifting stimuli and the amplitude of the rhythm of melatonin secretion."3.71Feeding melatonin enhances the phase shifting response to triazolam in both young and old golden hamsters. ( Bennett, KM; Dutton-Boilek, J; Horton, TH; Kolker, DE; Losee Olson, S; Turek, FW; Wallen, EP, 2002)
" Among women, age had no significant effect on area under the triazolam plasma concentration curve (AUC) (Spearman r=0."2.71Age and gender effects on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of triazolam, a cytochrome P450 3A substrate. ( Greenblatt, DJ; Harmatz, JS; Shader, RI; von Moltke, LL; Wright, CE, 2004)

( Kersey, K; Koch, KM; Lam, R; O'Connor-Semmes, RL; Williams, DH, 2001)
