About

Alprazolam works by enhancing the activity of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter in the brain that promotes relaxation and reduces neuronal excitability. By increasing GABA activity, alprazolam helps to dampen excessive brain activity, thereby alleviating symptoms of anxiety and panic.
