Mechanism of Action of Ativan

Gamma amino butyric acid is the inhibitory neurotransmitter present in the body. It is believed that anxiety is caused due to excessive signaling or neural signals in the central nervous system. As Gamma amino butyric acid is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, it inhibits the transmission of chemical signals between the neurons. This chemical signal decreases the action of the central nervous system and affects anxiety and depression. Ativan enhances the working of Gamma-aminobutyric acid, decreasing the fast chemical signals passing between the neurons. This is how the drug works to subside the effects of anxiety and depression.
