Tetrazepam, (and is marketed under the following brand names, Clinoxan, Epsipam, Myolastan, Musaril, Relaxam and Spasmorelax) is a benzodiazepine derivative with anticonvulsant, anxiolytic, hypnotic and muscle relaxant properties.

Tetrazepam has relatively little sedative effect at low doses while still producing useful muscle relaxation and anxiety relief.
Delayed type 4 allergic hypersensitivity reactions including aculopapular exanthema, erythematous rash, urticarial eruption, erythema multiforme, photodermatitis, eczema and Stevens-Johnson syndrome can occasionally occur as a result of tetrazepam exposure.

Tetrazepam is used therapeutically as a muscle relaxant.
