A double-blind parallel-group comparison of single bedtime doses of halazepam and placebo.
A single bedtime dose of 120 mg of halazepam was effective in the treatment of patients with mild to moderate anxiety. This dose was superior to both placebo and a 60 mg dose in this 2-week study, as shown by both physician and patient rating scales. The safety of single bedtime doses of halazepam was confirmed. All the reported side-effects were known adverse experiences to benzodiazepines in general.
