Used primarily in research settings due to its status as a designer benzodiazepine. It exhibits sedative and anxiolytic properties, making it of interest for studying central nervous system depression, receptor binding affinity, and metabolic pathways of benzodiazepines. Not approved for medical use in most countries and is often encountered in forensic and toxicological analyses related to novel psychoactive substances. Its application remains limited to laboratory and monitoring purposes rather than therapeutic use.
