Description
Phenibut, also known as fenibut, phenigamma, and beta-phenyl-gamma-aminobutyric acid, is a derivative of the neurotransmitter GABA. It was developed in Russia, and there it has been used clinically since the 1960s to treat anxiety and related conditions, including insomnia (Lapin, 2001). Phenibut has anxiolytic properties and is commonly compared to benzodiazepines and baclofen. Structurally, phenibut is similar to GABA, with the addition of the phenyl ring. This allows the compound to more easily cross the blood-brain barrier, but also changes its activity profile (Shulgina, 1986). Scientific studies demonstrate that phenibut can be safely used to treat anxiety, depression, epilepsy, speech disorders, and insomnia.
Phenibut is a chemical similar to a brain chemical called gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).
Phenibut might decrease anxiety and have other effects on the body, but most research on phenibut has been published in Russia.
