Benzodiazepines work by the central nervous system via modulating the GABAa receptor andhyperpolarizing neurons (causing sedation)

SSRISSRIs s inhibit the reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT) into the presynaptic cell, increasing levels of 5-HT within the synaptic cleft
