Centrax, Prescription for Anxiety Relief


Centrax (prazepam), 5 mg capsules, shown with a ruler for scale. Centrax belongs to the benzodiazepine family and is used for short term treatment of anxiety. Centrax contains anxiolytic, sedative, anticonvulsant and skeletal muscle relaxant properties that work to calm the patient and relieve anxiety. Centrax works by enhancing GABA function in the brain by modulating benzodiazepine receptors. A depressant is a drug that depresses the function or activity of a specific part of the brain. Depressants are also occasionally referred to as "downers." Depressants are widely used throughout the world as prescription medicines and as illicit substances. Effects include anxiolysis, pain relief, sedation or somnolence, cognitive/memory impairment, as well as in some instances euphoria, dissociation, muscle relaxation, lowered blood pressure or heart rate, respiratory depression, and anticonvulsant effects; complete anesthesia or death at can result at high doses.
