Important note

NOT A LEGITIMATE MEDICATION. Farmapram is not a real, FDA-approved drug. It is commonly encountered on illicit and online markets and is associated with the illicit counterfeit benzodiazepine trade, where products sold under novel names are frequently counterfeit, contain varying amounts of active ingredient, or contain different ingredients altogether. Treat any product bearing this name as an unapproved, misbranded and potentially adulterated substance of unknown identity and unknown dose - do not take it, and do not treat it as diazepam or any other named benzodiazepine. Verification performed: a DailyMed drug_name=farmapram search returned zero SPLs, confirming there is no approved US label; a PubChem name lookup for 'farmapram' returned no CID, confirming it is not a registered chemical substance in PubChem (the associated active substance flunitrazepam is CID 3380). Because no primary source describes a product named Farmapram, generic, drugClass, rxStatus, schedule, pharmacokinetics, strengths, side effects and interactions are all null or empty rather than inferred. No FDA source naming 'Farmapram' specifically was located within the permitted primary sources; the general FDA findings on illicit online benzodiazepines and counterfeit products are recorded in FDA warning letters, for example https://www.fda.gov/inspections-compliance-enforcement-and-criminal-investigations/warning-letters/wwwplakini-pharmacom-705185-07162025 , which states that drugs sold online that circumvent regulatory safeguards 'may be contaminated, counterfeit, contain varying amounts of active ingredients, or contain different ingredients altogether' and that there are no approved drug applications in effect for flunitrazepam in the United States.
