GABAergic hallucinogens are | [[File:Muscimol.svg|250px|thumbnail|right|The structure of muscimol, a naturally occurring GABAergic hallucinogen.]] | ||
GABAergic hallucinogens are substances that produce hallucinogenic effects such as perceptual changes, visual distortions, hallucinations, and bizarre behaviors via their activity at [[GABA]] receptors, which are typically associated with central nervous system [[depressants]] such as [[alcohol]] or [[benzodiazepines]]. These hallucinations and behavioral changes are likely a result of GABA<sub>A-ρ</sub> agonism; however, the precise mechanism is poorly understood.{{citation needed}} | |||
The most well known of these substances are Z-drugs like [[zolpidem]] (Ambien) or [[zopiclone]]. Fly agaric mushrooms ''([[Amanita muscaria]])'' contain muscimol, which is a GABAergic hallucinogen. | |||
