ハルシオン0.125mg錠
Triazolam (Halcion)
Triazolam · ハルシオン
Halcion, withdrawn in the UK decades ago, is still widely prescribed in Japan for difficulty falling asleep (0.125 and 0.25 mg). It is a controlled psychotropic and, because of its abuse history, the one sleeping pill most likely to draw questions at customs; carry the prescription and stay within 1 month.
