Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
Etizolam acts on the benzodiazepine site of the GABA-A receptor as an agonist to increase inhibitory GABAergic transmission throughout the central nervous system. Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) is the inhibitory neurotransmitter between the neurons. Enhancing the effects of GABA, thus, lowers the activity by helping in slowing down the transmission of information across the neurons, thus helping in relieving the symptoms related to anxiety, depression, panic attacks, etc.
