Muscimol

Muscimol is a psychoactive compound found in certain species of mushrooms, notably Amanita muscaria and Amanita pantherina. It acts as a potent GABA receptor agonist, producing sedative, hallucinogenic, and dissociative effects by enhancing the inhibitory action of GABA in the brain. Muscimol is primarily of interest to researchers studying neuroscience and psychopharmacology, as well as individuals exploring traditional and recreational use of psychoactive substances.
