Afloqualone

Catalog No. A17276

main product photo
Afloqualone, also known as HQ-495, is a centrally acting muscle relaxant. Afloqualone inhibits vestibular nystagmus probably due to both inhibition of selective polysynaptic transmission and enhancement of the effects of GABA and glycine in the lateral vestibular nucleus (LVN), and its GABA-enhancing effect is thought to be attributable to the increased sensitivity of GABA receptors of the LVN neuron site.
