🧠 #Benzodiazepines are positive allosteric modulators and require the presence of GABA to work! Their effects are mediated by the α subunit.
● Anxiolytics - α2, α3
● Sedatives - α1, α5
● Anticonvulsants - α1, α2, α3, α5
● Anterograde amnesia - α1
α4 and α6 do not bind benzodiazepines
● Possess arginine where other α subunits have histidine

The more research I read the more leery I get of #benzodiazepines ("#benzos" like xanax, valium, etc) and #anticholinergics (including allergy pills like benadryl & even some "non-drowsy" #antihistamines, and other #drugs).
The short term cognitive impacts are well known. The cumulative #dementia risk? Not so many people have heard of that. But the evidence so far looks bad.
