As the GABA site is the most prolific inhibitory receptor set within the brain, its modulation results in the [[sedating]] (or [[anxiety suppression|calming)]] effects of zolpidem on the nervous system.

In regards to how the consumption of this compound results in its bizarre hallucinations, the pharmacological mechanics behind this are not understood and do not seem to have been directly studied. It is worth noting, however, that zolpidem may share similar mechanisms as a [[GABA]]<sub>A</sub> receptor [[agonist]] to that of [[muscimol]], which is the active compound within the hallucinogenic [[amanita muscaria]] mushroom.

It is worth noting, however, that zolpidem impact on regional activity may overlap with that of other hallucinogenic GABAergic drugs such as [[muscimol]], the active compound within the hallucinogenic [[amanita muscaria]] mushroom.
