Prazepam is a benzodiazepine derivative drug used primarily as an anxiolytic for the short-term management of anxiety disorders. It is a prodrug for desmethyldiazepam (nordiazepam), which is its main active metabolite. Due to concerns over dependence and newer alternatives, use of prazepam has declined and it is not widely approved or marketed in many countries today.
