Phaclofen, or phosphonobaclofen, is a selective antagonist for the GABAB receptor.[1] It was the first selective GABAB antagonist discovered, but its utility was limited by the fact that it does not cross the blood brain barrier.[2]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
