Tetrazepam is a benzodiazepine with muscle relaxant, anxiolytic, and anticonvulsant properties that acts by potentiating GABA-A receptor-mediated chloride ion influx, enhancing inhibitory neurotransmission in the central nervous system. It was used as a muscle relaxant for treatment of painful skeletal muscle spasms and was withdrawn from several markets due to serious cutaneous adverse reactions including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis. Its muscle relaxant activity was considered clinically useful but the severe dermatological risks outweighed benefits.
