Product Description

4-Aminobutyric acid is used both in biochemical research and medicinally to treat diseases related to hepatic coma and cerebrovascular disorders. As a pharmaceutical intermediate, it helps lower blood lipids, making it suitable for the treatment and prevention of various types of hepatic coma. It can also treat conditions like poliomyelitis, cerebral hemorrhage, and serve as an antidote for gas poisoning. Additionally, it plays a role in biochemical research and organic synthesis. 4-Aminobutyric acid reduces blood ammonia levels and promotes brain metabolism, making it effective for treating hepatic coma, coma from stroke sequelae, cerebral arteriosclerosis, head trauma sequelae, uremia, and gas poisoning. It acts as a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, agonizes GABAA and GABAB receptors, and increases chloride conductivity.
