''Bromazolam''' (also known as '''Brom''', '''Bromaz''', or '''XLI-268''') is a [[psychoactive class::depressant]] substance of the [[Chemical class::benzodiazepine]] class - more specifically it is a [[Triazolobenzodiazepine]] (TBZD). Its characteristic effects include [[anxiety suppression]], [[sedation]], [[disinhibition]], and [[muscle relaxation]]. <s>It is currently [[Unscheduled]] in most parts of the world, and hence it is commonly sold as a [[Research chemicals|Research chemical]]</s>. Bromazolam was virtually as unregulated as even the most obscure research chemicals known to man until early 2023 the United States DEA and DOJ working in tandem added Flubramzolam, Etizolam, and several other designer benzodiazepines into Emergency Schedule I. Althought bromazolam itself curiously was not one of the substances added, the fact that flubromazolam and many other very similar drugs are in Emergency Schedule I at the Federal Level. meaning that, as a Schedule I or II illegal narcotic, even bromazolam itself is now illegal federally because Schedule I and II narcotics are covered by the Federal Analogues Act.

Like other [[benzodiazepines]], [[Bromazolam]] binds to specific sites on the [[gamma-amino-butyric acid|GABA<sub>A</sub>]] receptor.<ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4303399/</ref> Since it is not available by prescription and is sold online on [[clearnet]] and [[darknet]] vendors - it is commonly used to self-medicate or for recreational purposes.
