Remimazolam, sold under the brand name Byfavo, is a medication used for procedural sedation.[3] Specifically it is used in adults for procedures lasting less than 30 minutes.[3] It is given by injection into a vein.[3] While onset of effects is similar, the duration is shorter than midazolam.[5][6]

Common side effects include low blood pressure, high blood pressure, and low oxygen.[3] Other side effects may include abuse and allergic reactions.[3] Effectiveness is not altered in kidney problems, though lower doses may be used in those with liver problems.[3][7] Effects can be revered with flumazenil.[4] It is a benzodiazepine and works by attaching to gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) receptors.[2]

Remimazolam was approved for medical use in the United States in 2020 and Europe in 2021.[3][2] In the United States a vial of 20 mg costs about 42 USD as of 2022.[8]
