Hi, Yeah! Can someone tell me what meds work on GABA? I was told by a doc-I needed one of them and it would work on me. Some GABA reason. Anyone know?
Thanks,
Kristen:-)


> > Daizy, an agonist potentiates increases dopamine/effects of dopamine, whereas antagonist would inhibit dopamine. In my situation, and in most situations I've read about (this board included), drugs that primarily increase dopamine (or effectiveness of dopamine) make anxiety symptoms worse in people with SP. The reason I'm trying to get an idea of the effectiveneness of these types of drugs on SP is because I'm convinced dopamine levels/transmission has a role in SP, but I can't put my finger on it. By the way, If you're looking to for calmness, try a drug that works on GABA, if your doc is cool with it.

Well SNRI and SSRI didnt work for me, am now on TCA and has worked better, Im still hoping to find a med that will work better though! Which drugs work on GABA?
