Chlordiazepoxide was patented in 1958 and approved for medical use in 1960.^[2] It was the first benzodiazepine to be synthesized and the discovery of chlordiazepoxide was by pure chance.^[3] Chlordiazepoxide and other benzodiazepines were initially accepted with widespread public approval but were followed with widespread public disapproval and recommendations for more restrictive medical guidelines for its use

Chlordiazepoxide is indicated for the short-term (2–4 weeks) treatment of anxiety that is severe and disabling or subjecting the person to unacceptable distress. It is also indicated as a treatment for the management of acute alcohol withdrawal syndrome.^[5]

It can sometimes be prescribed to ease symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome combined with clidinium bromide as a fixed dose medication, Librax.^[6]

Contraindications

Use of chlordiazepoxide should be avoided in individuals with the following conditions:

• Myasthenia gravis
• Acute intoxication with alcohol, narcotics, or other psychoactive substances
• Ataxia
• Severe hypoventilation
• Acute narrow-angle glaucoma
• Severe liver deficiencies (hepatitis and liver cirrhosis decrease elimination by a factor of 2)
• Severe sleep apnea
• Hypersensitivity or allergy to any drug in the benzodiazepine class

Chlordiazepoxide is generally considered an inappropriate benzodiazepine for the elderly due to its long elimination half-life and the risks of accumulation.^[7] Benzodiazepines require special precaution if used in the elderly, pregnancy, children, alcohol- or drug-dependent individuals and individuals with comorbid psychiatric disorders
