GABAergic hallucinogens are substances that increase the amount of [[GABA]] in the brain, or agonise the [[GABA]] receptors. Unlike many GABAergics, they, however, can also cause hallucinations and bizarre behavior. These hallucinations and behavioral changes are likely a result of GABA<sub>C</sub>, or GABA<sub>A-ρ</sub> agonism. The most well known of these drugs are | [[File:Muscimol.svg|250px|thumbnail|right|The structure of muscimol, a GABAergic hallucinogen.]] | ||
