Drugs that influence gabaa

Drugs that influence GABAA receptor systems include sedative-hypnotics (eg, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, zolpidem) and some anticonvulsants (eg, gabapentin, tiagabine, vigabatrin). Glycine receptors, which are more numerous in the cord than in the brain, are blocked by strychnine, a spinal convulsant.
