The anxiolytic effect of etifoxine is due, firstly, to the modulation of GABA receptor activity and, secondly, to that of metabolism of neurosteroids that are themselves characterized by anxiolytic and neuroprotective properties. The results of clinical trials of etifoxine are also analyzed. In addition to its anxiolytic effect that partially persists even after treatment discontinuation, etifoxine is ascertained to be characterized by analgesic, neurotrophic and neuroprotective properties.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Представлен систематический анализ экспериментальных и клинических исследований этифоксина. Анксиолитическое действие этифоксина осуществляется посредством, во-первых, модулирования активности ГАМК1-рецепторов и, во-вторых, модуляции метаболизма нейростероидов (которые сами по себе характеризуются анксиолитическими и нейропротекторными свойствами). Проанализированы также результаты клинических исследований этифоксина. Установлено, что, помимо анксиолитического эффекта, частично сохраняющегося даже после отмены терапии, этифоксин характеризуется анальгетическими, нейротрофическими и нейропротекторными свойствами.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>этифоксин</kwd><kwd>гамма-аминоуксусная кислота</kwd><kwd>нейростероиды</kwd><kwd>тревога</kwd><kwd>адаптация</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>etifoxine</kwd><kwd>gamma-amino butyric acid</kwd><kwd>neurosteroids</kwd><kwd>anxiety</kwd><kwd>adaptation</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Stein D.
