Norflurazepam is a long-acting benzodiazepine and an active metabolite of several pharmaceutical benzodiazepines including flurazepam, quazepam, and midazolam. It has been available as a research chemical since 2016. Due to its extremely long half-life (47-150 hours, up to 200 hours in some individuals), it is prone to accumulation with repeated dosing and may remain detectable in the body for days after use. Fatal overdose may occur when combined with other CNS depressants. Legal status varies by jurisdiction; it is controlled in some countries including Canada (Schedule IV).
