Summary
Brotizolam is an extremely potent short-acting thienotriazolodiazepine prescribed for short-term treatment (2-4 weeks only) of severe insomnia. Doses are active at as little as 80 micrograms, with therapeutic doses typically 0.125-0.25 mg. Residual effects the next day may impair cognitive and motor function, particularly above 0.5 mg.

Reset
Falls after you stop, at a rate that varies from person to person. If you've been using regularly, cut down gradually with medical help rather than stopping suddenly.
No tolerance chart. Our decay curves for these drugs were estimates, and a curve can make tolerance look longer-lasting than it is, which is the dangerous direction.
How fast tolerance to these drugs fades after a break has not been measured well enough to draw, so don't count on a dose you used to take still being safe: after time off, start with a much smaller amount and don't use alone. Mixing sedatives with each other, with alcohol or with opioids sharply raises the risk of a fatal overdose. If you've been using regularly, don't stop suddenly: withdrawal from benzodiazepines, alcohol or GHB/GBL can cause seizures or delirium, so get medical help to cut down gradually.
