Pharmacological action — hypnotic, sedative. It is an agonist of benzodiazepine receptors. It interacts with central receptors (subtypes of omega 1 and omega2 benzodiazepine receptors) of the macromolecular GABAbenzodiazepine-chlorionophoric complex and does not interact with peripheral benzodiazepine receptors. Increases the sensitivity of GABA receptors to the mediator (GABA), which causes an increase in the frequency of opening channels in the cytoplasmic membrane of neurons for incoming currents of chlorine ions. As a result, there is an increase in the inhibitory effect of GABA and inhibition of interneuronal transmission in various parts of the central nervous system.
