Benzodiazepines

Benzodiazepines are a class of psychoactive drugs that are commonly prescribed for their sedative, hypnotic, anxiolytic, muscle relaxant, and anticonvulsant properties. They work by enhancing the effect of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, leading to a calming or sedative effect. This can help alleviate symptoms of anxiety, insomnia, muscle spasms, and seizures.
