GABAA receptor agonist
A GABA receptor agonist specific for GABAA receptors, ligand-gated ion channels (also known as ionotropic receptors).
GABA modulator
A substance that does not act as agonist or antagonist but does affect the gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor-ionophore complex. GABA-A receptors appear to have at least three allosteric sites at which modulators act: a site at which benzodiazepines act by increasing the opening frequency of gamma-aminobutyric acid-activated chloride channels; a site at which barbiturates act to prolong the duration of channel opening; and a site at which some steroids may act.

anticonvulsant
A drug used to prevent seizures or reduce their severity.
GABAA receptor agonist
A GABA receptor agonist specific for GABAA receptors, ligand-gated ion channels (also known as ionotropic receptors).
anxiolytic drug
Anxiolytic drugs are agents that alleviate anxiety, tension, and anxiety disorders, promote sedation, and have a calming effect without affecting clarity of consciousness or neurologic conditions.
sedative
A central nervous system depressant used to induce drowsiness or sleep or to reduce psychological excitement or anxiety.
