Because the benzodiazepines are unselective for GABA receptors and stimulate gabergic receptors involved in reducing anxiety and panic as well as those receptors involved in sedation I was wondering whether benzodiazepines could be augmented with selective GABA antagonists to allow a person to continue to experience the anxiolytic effect of the drug but eliminate the amnesic and sedative effects that the benzodiazepines have? Can you mention any that are available?
