Midazolam other name?

Midazolam is the generic name, but it’s sold under several brand names and has a few chemical‑synonym forms:

| Category | Examples |
|----------|----------|
| Brand (trademarks) | Versed (most common in the U.S.)
Dormicum (Europe, Canada)
ProSom (also used in the U.S.)
Sedormed (used in some countries) |
| Other generic synonyms | 1-(2‑Hydroxy‑2‑propyl)-1,3‑benzodiazol‑2‑yl 2‑oxo‑2H‑1,3‑benzimidazole (full IUPAC name) |
| Common shorthand | Midaz (informal abbreviation in some clinical notes) |

So if you see “Versed,” “Dormicum,” or “ProSom,” it’s the same drug – midazolam – a benzodiazepine used for short‑term sedation, anxiolysis, or as a pre‑anesthetic medication.
