[Flumazenil, a benzodiazepine antagonist, in endoscopic premedication].

Midazolam is the benzodiazepine recommended for anaesthesia induction when an early recovering is desirable. Flumazenil, which is also a hydrosoluble imidazobenzodiazepine, improves the safety of the forhere one because it immediately reduces the degree of sedation. With this purpose, this last drug has been studied in 25 patients who had been previously treated with Midazolam in order to carry out different endoscopic studies.
