Question: is oxazepam a metabolite of diazepam?
Answer: Benzodiazepines are extensively metabolized, and the parent compounds are not detected in urine. Diazepam is metabolized to nordiazepam, oxazepam, and temazepam; all may be detected after diazepam use. Chlordiazepoxide is metabolized to nordiazepam and oxazepam; all may be detected after chlordiazepoxide use.
