The invention relates to medical chemistry, in particular to the use of 7-bromo-5-(o-chlorophenyl)-3-propoxy-1,2-di-hydro-3H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one as a drug which inhibits neuropathic pain without the formation of defects in the gastric mucosa (ulcerogenic effect), and possesses an anticonvulsant property.

The present invention provides compounds and compositions which are positive allosteric modulators of GABA-A receptors that selectively target the peripheral nervous system and organs of the body, and which do not pass through the blood-brain barrier. The compounds and compositions of the present invention are useful for treatment of diseases or disorders which are mediated by GABA-A neuronal activity, such as, for example, visceral pain, gut motility, irritable bowel syndrome, functional abdominal pain, functional idiopathic diarrhea, inflammatory bowel diseases, drug induced pain, bile salt malabsorption, lactase or other carbohydrate intolerance.
