| Diazepam | Etizolam | |
|---|---|---|
| Class | Depressiva | Depressiva |
| Risk Level | moderate | high |
| Mechanisms | GABA-A positive allosterische Modulation | GABA-A positive allosterische Modulation |
| Receptors | GABA-A | GABA-A |
| Effects | Anxiolyse — Reduktion von Angst und innerer Unruhe, Sedierung und Schläfrigkeit, Muskelentspannung, Antikonvulsive Wirkung, Anterograde Amnesie (besonders bei höheren Dosen) | — |

Diazepam wirkt als Modulator des GABA-A-Rezeptors, wodurch die Wirkung des Neurotransmitters GABA verstärkt wird, was zu einer erhöhten Hemmung der neuronalen Aktivität führt.
