Camazepam (marketed under the brand names Albego, Limpidon, and Paxor) is the dimethyl carbamate salt of temazepam, a metabolite of diazepam. It possesses anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, sedative and skeletal muscle relaxant properties. Compared to temazepam, camazepam has shown greater anticonvulsant properties, roughly equal anxiolytic properties, and less sedative and amnestic properties.
