Unfortunately, I don’t remember the dosages used, so I can’t comment on the drug’s behavior throughout its clinical range. With respect to sedative and hypnotic effects, it didn’t affect me in the slightest. It was incredible. The drug was remarkably clean. That isn’t to say that it doesn’t possess anxiolytic properties. It probably does. On this, I can’t comment either since I did not suffer from anxiety at the time.

hi scott, sounds like you were in the early days of trials after upjohn released....my info comes (mostly) from www.pubmed.org on this one, single keyword adinazolam, and you can peruse abstracts that support your claims as well as those that supprt mine...all the best, chemist
