Prazepam
Prazepam is a long-acting benzodiazepine anxiolytic that potentiates the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA at the GABA-A receptor by allosterically enhancing chloride ion conductance, producing anxiolytic, sedative, anticonvulsant, and muscle relaxant effects. It serves as a prodrug, being converted to the active metabolite desmethyldiazepam (nordazepam), and is used for the treatment of anxiety disorders.
