Abstract
The main pharmacological use of etifoxine is the treatment of psychosomatic manifestations of anxiety. The purpose of this work is a systematic analysis of fundamental and clinical studies of etifoxine. In addition to the anxiolytic effect, which partially persists even after discontinuation of therapy, etifoxine is characterized by analgesic, neurotrophic and neuroprotective properties. Such a pharmacological profile of etifoxine is due not only to the activation of GABA receptors, but also to the effect on the levels of neurosteroids in the blood and in the brain. Modulation by etifoxine of neurosteroids' metabolism contributes to the manifestation of anxiolytic, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and other properties of etifoxine.
