  • Title: Triazolam compared with nitrazepam and with oxazepam in insomnia: two double-blind, crossover studies analyzed sequentially.
    Author: Dordain G, Puech AJ, Simon P.
    Journal: Br J Clin Pharmacol; 1981; 11 Suppl 1(Suppl 1):43S-49S. PubMed ID: 6133534.
    Abstract:
    1 In two double-blind, crossover studies, general practitioners compared the hypnotic activity of triazolam 0.50 mg with that of nitrazepam 5 mg or oxazepam 50 mg in outpatient insomnias. 2 The patient's preferences served as the main criterion, and were processed by sequential analysis. 3 More patients (P less than 0.05) preferred triazolam to nitrazepam (triazolam 28; nitrazepam 11; no preference 9). 4 The numbers of patients who preferred triazolam or oxazepam did not differ significantly. 5 Triazolam and oxazepam affected sleep parameters similarly except for onset of sleep and feeling in the morning, for which triazolam seemed to be superior to oxazepam.
