Chlordiazepoxide (marketed under the trade name Librium®) is a hypnotic drug which is a benzodiazepine derivative. It has sedative, anxiolytic and skeletal muscle relaxant properties.

History

---

Chlordiazepoxide was the first benzodiazepine to be synthesized and made commercially available. It was an accidental discovery made by Leo Sternbach in the mid-1950s, and brought to market by Roche Pharmaceuticals in 1960. It has a medium to long half life.

Sternbach later went on to develop diazepam, better known as Valium, sold by Roche since 1963. The huge success of Valium made Roche the market leader in benzodiazepine products, and the company went on to develop and market nitrazepam in 1965 and later flurazepam and flunitrazepam in 1975.
