Midaspray Nasal 50 Metered Spray (Midazolam) is a benzodiazepine that enhances the effects of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain. This increases GABAergic inhibition, resulting in sedation, anxiolysis, muscle relaxation, and anticonvulsant effects.

Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children. Discard any unused medication according to your pharmacist's or doctor's instructions. Do not use if the medication is expired or shows signs of degradation.

Dosage is highly individualized and determined by a physician based on factors such as age, weight, medical condition, and the specific indication. It is crucial to strictly follow the prescribed dosage and administration instructions.

Midazolam can be administered intravenously, intramuscularly, rectally, orally, or via nasal spray. The route of administration will depend on the medical need and the patient's condition.
