modulates chloride channelss on GABA thereby increasing the hyperpol effect
why do valium and xanax do
treat anxiety so when you are anxious your are to excited thus you have to cure it by making you less excited by binding the INHIBITORY nts GABA

insomnia
sedative
alcohol withdrawl
what are the side effects of xanax and valium

sedation
dizzy
confused
poor coordination
what cant a BDZ be mixed with and why
alcohol because it will kill you!

carbidopa is always given with ___ as what
given as Sigemet with l-dopa
Sigemet
carbidopa given with l-dopa
why is carbidopa/sigemet given with l-dopa
decreases l-dopa side effects
bromocryptine
a dopamine 2 receptor agonist

CRYPTS smoke DOPE

potentiates l-dopa
what the problem with MAOI
lots of drug interactions
Entacapone (comatan)
