Phenprobamate (Gamaquil, Isotonil, Actozine) is a centrally actingskeletalmuscle relaxant, with additionalsedative andanticonvulsant effects.[2][unreliable source?] Itsmechanism of action is probably similar tomeprobamate. Phenprobamate has been used in humans as ananxiolytic, and is still sometimes used ingeneral anesthesia and for treating muscle cramps and spasticity. Phenprobamate is still used and available OTC in some European countries, but it has generally been replaced by newer drugs. It has been sold labeled as a nootropic. Phenprobamate is metabolized by oxidative degradation of thecarbamate group and ortho-hydroxylation of the benzene ring, and is eliminated in urine by the kidneys.[citation needed]
Doses range from 400 to 800 mg, up to 3 times a day.[3]
