Abstract

The authors report about six patients, who after the intake of Midazolam or Triazolam suffered from an oneiroid-confusional state in which they carried out complex acts and for which an anterograde amnesia existed. In addition to these drugs, one female patient was under the influence of alcohol and one male patient of Bromazepam. Two of the patients suffered of emotional conflicts. The possibility of disinhibition of suicide and other impulses is named. The authors recommend caution in prescribing these benzodiazepines of ultrashort action.
