  • Title: Nitrazepam--a safe hypnotic.
    Author: Matthew H, Proudfoot AT, Aitken RC, Raeburn JA, Wright N.
    Journal: Br Med J; 1969 Jul 05; 3(5661):23-5. PubMed ID: 4892037.
    Abstract:
    In 27 patients nitrazepam (Mogadon) taken in acute overdosage produced no untoward effects except drowsiness, even when 80 tablets were consumed. A double-blind trial in patients in general medical wards established that nitrazepam was as effective as butobarbitone as a hypnotic. It is concluded that nitrazepam is a safe and effective hypnotic.
