> Shello there, chemist here...prazepam is no longer marketed in the u.s., and the structure includes a 3-carbon ring tethered where one would find a hydrogen in a ``normal'' benzodiazepine...it has at least one relative i can name - flutoprazepam - also unavailable in the u.s. both drugs were synthesized within 10 years of sternbach's pioneering work in the area, and i suspect that these - and numerous other benzos/derivs - simply were redundant in terms of efficacy and hence are not on the shelves....just a guess....all the best, chemist
