Is oxazepam in diazepam?

No, oxazepam isn’t in diazepam, exactly. It’s more like…diazepam turns into oxazepam. Think of it like this: you bake a cake (diazepam), and then afterwards, you’ve got some leftover crumbs (oxazepam). They both came from the same place, but they’re definitely different. Oxazepam is what’s called a metabolite, a byproduct of diazepam being broken down in the body—kind of like how that cake becomes crumbs, you know? It’s also kind of interesting because it absorbs and works slower. I remember when my grandma was prescribed diazepam, and then later she was switched to oxazepam. It seemed to last longer for her, which I guess makes sense now that I know more about how it works. It’s not like a quick hit, more of a gradual thing. So, yeah, different but related. What else comes from diazepam breakdown? I should probably look that up sometime…
