What does it do?

Topisopam is an autonomic nervous system component belonging to the benzodiazepine class. It is primarily used in pharmaceuticals to alleviate anxiety symptoms and relieve tension. It plays a role in regulating excessive excitability in the nervous system.

Topisopam works by acting on the GABA receptors, which are neurotransmitters in the brain, suppressing neural activity. This results in reduced anxiety and tension and produces a calming effect. Unlike typical benzodiazepines, its muscle relaxant effect is minimal.
