Remimazolam‐Induced Paradoxical Reaction in a Bipolar Patient: A Case Report
This first reported case of remimazolam-induced paradoxical reaction (PR) in a bipolar disorder patient highlights that GABAergic dysfunction may heighten PR risk. Flumazenil effectively reversed the symptoms, underscoring the need for caution and preparedness when using benzodiazepines in this vulnerable population.
