What is the mechanism of action of benzodiazepines?
I - The physiological effects of benzodiazepines are mediated by the limbic system and thalamus.
II - Benzodiazepines increase the inhibitory activity of GABA, reducing the effects of excitatory neurotransmitters.
III - Benzodiazepines act on alpha 1 receptors, which are related to sedative, amnesic, and anticonvulsant effects.
IV - Benzodiazepines act on alpha 5 receptors, which are related to pain relief.
a) I and II are correct.
b) II and III are correct.
c) I, II, and III are correct.
d) II, III, and IV are correct.

A alternativa correta é a letra b) II e III estão corretas. Benzodiazepinas aumentam a atividade inibitória do GABA, reduzindo os efeitos dos neurotransmissores excitatórios, e atuam nos receptores alfa 1, relacionados aos efeitos sedativos, amnésicos e anticonvulsivantes.
