Oral flurazepam is superior to oral diazepam as...

A hypnotic
An anxiolytic
A muscle relaxant
An anticonvulsant

The correct answer is: A hypnotic

Oral flurazepam is superior to oral diazepam as a hypnotic because it has a longer duration of action and a slower onset of action. This makes it better suited for treating insomnia and helps maintain sleep throughout the night. Option B, anxiolytic, may also be a correct answer, as both drugs have similar effectiveness in reducing anxiety. Option C, muscle relaxant, and option D, anticonvulsant, are incorrect as they are not primary indications for either drug.
