considered “intermediate,” lasting around 5 h (for an overview see Palagini and Bianchini. 2022).
Currently, four studies involved brotizolam in pregnancy and postpartum (Table 23.1). One study was conducted in animals and showed that brotizolam does pass the placenta and the breast milk in animal (Bechtel 1983). A study was conducted with 11 women in the peripartum period, while two additional studies were presented as case reports (Nishimura etal. 2021; Saito et al. 2021; Saito etal. 2021). These studies indicated that the Relative Infant Dose (RID) was less than 10%, suggesting a relatively safe level, and the milk to plasma (M/P) ratio was below 1.
Temazepam
Temazepam, classied as a 1,4-benzodiazepine, is a hydroxylated derivative of diazepam (3-hydroxydiazepam) and exerts its effects on sleep through interaction with GABAA receptors. Its half-life ranges from approximately 5–11h. Six studies involved the use of temazepam during the perinatal period (Table23.1) (Kargas etal. 1985; Lebedevs etal. 1992; Cooper etal. 2001; Kelly etal. 2012; Damen etal.
2014; Ban etal. 2014). Data on pregnancy are lacking. Globally the milk to plasma
(M/P) ratio was below 1. Two studies report negative outcomes: one with the inter­action with diphenhydramine, the other one after using it during delivery (Kargas etal. 1985; Cooper et al. 2001). In a large cohort study, risks of system-specic major congenital anomalies were generally similar in children exposed to temaze­pam during the rst trimester of pregnancy compared to those not exposed to such medications (Ban etal. 2014).
Triazolam
Triazolam is classied as a triazolobenzodiazepine. Its half-life is relatively brief, ranging from approximately 2–3h, with recommended hypnotic doses between 0.125 and 0.25mg administered at bedtime. Five studies involved tri­azolam in the perinatal period (Kitagawa etal. 1979; Sakai etal. 1996; Kelly etal. 2012; Noh et al. 2022; Bagger etal. 2023) (Table23.1). Triazolam has been shown to cross the placenta in animals (Kitagawa etal. 1979) but there are no data on RID of M/P in humans. Two retrospective cohort studies showed risk for malformation after exposure during the rst trimester comparable to that of non-exposed population (Noh etal. 2022; Bagger etal. 2023). Other reports are case discussions.
There are no data on other benzodiazepines sometimes prescribed for insomnia such as Flurazepam, lormetazepam, or estazolam, related to the peripartum period. Currently, there is inconclusive data on the use of hypnotic benzodiazepines in insomnia during the peripartum.
Several meta-analyses and reviews have examined the effects of these medica­tions during the peripartum period (Chaudhry and Susser 2018; Miller etal. 2020; Grigoriadis etal. 2020; Huitfeldt etal. 2020; Uguz 2021; Wang etal. 2022; Andrade etal. 2024).

milk during subsequent sampling intervals. The
concentration ratio of zolpidem in breast milk to that
in plasma at 3h was determined to be 0.13.
Furthermore, the apparent clearance of zolpidem
from breast milk, calculated based on the total
amount excreted in milk relative to its plasma
concentration, was 1.48ml/h. these ndings indicate
that the excretion of zolpidem in human milk is
minimal (below 0.02%), with the majority occurring

zolpidem misuse experienced a spontaneous vaginal
delivery at 38weeks of gestation. The total fetal
exposure to zolpidem remains uncertain; however, it
is estimated to be no less than 1000mg over a
duration of at least 1 month. Typical peak plasma
concentrations following a single administration of
5mg and 10mg of zolpidem are reported to be
between 29–113ng/ml (mean 59ng/ml) and
58–272ng/ml (mean 121ng/ml), respectively. A
sample of cord blood was collected for zolpidem
analysis, yielding a concentration of 41ng/ml.
Notably, despite the detection of zolpidem in the
cord blood, the neonate exhibited activity and
alertness following a normal delivery. There were no
signs of withdrawal symptoms, and both the mother
and the neonate were discharged after a 48-h
monitoring period. This case report illustrates that
