Flurazepam is a benzodiazepine. They've abandoned it because it's long-acting and leaves a hangover compared to other sleeping pills. Probably the closest equivalent to 30 mg of flurazepam would be 10 mg of Valium (diazepam) though equivalent doses of benzodiazepines are not as predictable as many other classes of drugs.
