Pharmacology

Pharmacological action - miorelaxing, central.

It stimulates benzodiazepine receptors, increases the sensitivity of GABA receptors to the mediator and enhances the inhibitory effect of GABA in the central nervous system. Reduces the excitability of the subcortical structures of the brain (anticonvulsant action), inhibits polysynaptic spinal reflexes. Reduces emotional tension, alleviates anxiety, fear, anxiety (anxiolytic and sedative action).

Passes through tissue barriers, including GEB. T1 / 2 - 14-16 hours.
