WHAT MIDAZOLAM IS AND WHAT IT IS USED
FOR
Midazolam
belongs
to
a

of
medicines

them asleep.
MIDAZOLAM IS ALSO USED IN ADULTS AND CHILDREN:

intensive care. This is called ‘sedation’.
• before and during a medical test or procedure where
they are going to stay awake. It makes them feel calm
and sleepy. This is called ‘conscious sedation’.
• to make them feel calm and sleepy before they are
given an anaesthetic.
