Yes, midazolam, a short acting benzo commonly known as Versed, is a Schedule IV controlled drug. It is used mainly to knock people out before surgery via intravenous injection, but also as a last result for people with insomnia where traditional sleep aids, such as ambien, lunesta, temazepam, etc. aren't effective. Hope this helps.

∙ 14y agoYes. In the USA it is a Schedule IV Controlled Substance. It is illegal to possess without a prescription. Do not share this medicine with anyone, your dose may be therapeutic, but to someone else, it could be an overdose.
In my educated opinion, because of temazepam's low overdose threshold (taking just 2x the recommended dose can kill you; 60mg might be in the acceptable range for the benzodiazepine tolerant patient, but 120mg could be a fatal overdose) it should be a Schedule II Controlled Substance with a black box warning. I don't understand why it is so loosely monitored.
