New oral sedative studied in children to improve pre-surgery dosing
NCT ID NCT03639428
First seen Jun 17, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how a new oral form of midazolam (ADV6209) is processed in the body of children aged 6 months to 17 years before surgery. 37 children received a single dose based on their weight. Researchers measured drug levels in the blood to understand how age affects clearance and to support future dosing recommendations. The goal was not to test effectiveness but to gather pharmacokinetic data.
