S-8510 is a BZD partial inverse agonist to the BZD site on the GABA-A receptors in the central nervous system. As an inverse agonist (which as a group elicit CNS effects such as insomnia, agitation, and proconvulsant behaviors), S-8510 functions as a negative modulator of the GABA-A receptor. S-8510, however, is a partial inverse agonist, which means it has a lower affinity for the BZD binding site than do full agonists, and studies in animals have shown that the drug does not induce convulsions or anxiety.

Patent documents usually refer to a drug by its chemical name or development code rather than its generic name, and applications are only published about 18 months after filing — so a newer drug may not appear here yet.
