No, it's GABA transaminase antagonist. ref :http://www.drugbank.ca/cgi-bin/getCard.cgi?CARD=DB00510
Caffeine is a stimulalant... but has effects on many, many nuero-transmitters and an antagonist of GABA which is why I need to wash Alprazolam down with it or have an immediate increase in anxiety.
While it is generally not good to take Zoloft and GABA at the same time because of the conflicts in the chemicals of the antidepressant, there have not been enough studies on it to specify its dangers.
No, Zofran is a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist while benzodiazapines are GABA-a agonists. The 5-HT3 receptor controls inhibitory processes for the GABA sites, so antagonizing the 5-HT3 site, as Zofran does, may result in GABA stimulation as a byproduct, however it does not directly stimulate the GABA receptors, unlike Benzos.
Alprazolam is an positive allosteric modulater of GABAA on the Benzodiazipine site. This means it enhancers the effects of GABA reducing anxiety and causing sedation as those are the sites(outta 5) that it effects the most.
The terms antagonist/agonist only apply to 'exogenous' compounds, namely drugs and toxins, and not neurotransmitters - which are commonly classed according to whether they are excitatory or inhibitory. Examples of a the latter include GABA and glycine.
SGOT= Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase. SGPT= Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase.
Valproic acid's brand name is DEPAKENE. DEPAKOTE is the brand name for divalproex acid. They are technically two different medications. But, DEPAKOTE is converted into DEPAKENE inside your body ( divalproex acid is separated into valproic acid and a salt). After the converson, the two medications work the same way. The exact way they work on the body is unknown, but they are believed to increase GABA levels in the brain.
