General description

Alprazolam is a triazole-containing benzodiazepine that is related to diazepam and other 1,4-benxodiazepines. Like other benzodiazepines, Alprazolam is a GABAergic agonist that modulates GABAA receptors. GABAA receptors in the central nervous system are ligand-gated ion channels that are bound by the stimulatory neurotransmitter GABA; binding of this ligand allows ion movement through the channel and results in neurotransmission inhibition.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Alprazolam binds the GABAA receptor at the benzodiazepine site, which is different than the ligand-binding site at which GABA binds. Alprazolam has been shown to be an anxiolytic (anti-anxiety agent) as well as having anticonvulsant, muscle relaxant and antidepressant activity.

Drugs, 27(2), 132-147 (1984-02-01)
Alprazolam is a triazolobenzodiazepine which is related to diazepam and other 1,4-benzodiazepines, and has a similar pharmacological profile. Relative to the newer benzodiazepines, alprazolam has an intermediate half-life of 10 to 12 hours in healthy young subjects. In placebo-controlled and

A review of the worldwide published literature was conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of alprazolam for the treatment of anxiety disorders, panic disorder, and depression in comparison with those of other active drugs (including other benzodiazepines and antidepressant
E M Sellers et al.
The Journal of clinical psychiatry, 54 Suppl, 64-75 (1993-10-01)
The incidence of nonmedical use of alprazolam is very low relative to its widespread legitimate medical use; in fact, given the millions of patients who have received this medication, the incidence is remarkably small. In particular, among patients with anxiety
J O Cole et al.
The Journal of clinical psychiatry, 54 Suppl, 49-61 (1993-10-01)
A review of the published case reports of adverse behavioral episodes or unexpected psychopathology in patients taking benzodiazepines was undertaken in an attempt to determine if these adverse or unexpected events are more likely to occur with alprazolam when compared
