The drug promotes myorelaxation by inhibiting polysynaptic reflexes and inhibiting their conduction by spinal cord insertion neurons, reduces the intensity of metabolic processes in the brain, brain glucose and oxygen utilization. The sleeping effect is manifested in the acceleration of the sleep process and changes in the sleep structure. Depending on the dose, it depresses the respiratory center and reduces its sensitivity to carbon dioxide, has a cardiodepressive effect.
