Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
Clobazol acts as an anxiolytic by allosterically modulating GABAA chloride channels in the CNS, increasing inhibitory GABAergic tone and causing neuro-inhibition of the cortical and limbic systems.
Due to the complex and varied nature of the precise subunit composition of GABAA receptors, and a paucity of affinity data with definitive molecular details, we have not tagged a primary target for this drug.
