It is a potent non-competitive GABA antagonist in mammalian, molluscan and insects, a convulsant and a laboratory insecticide.

(IC50) for blocking the GABA-dependent [³⁶Cl] uptake in rat brain synaptosomes: 50 nM;
Inhibition of the GABA-dependent Cl- current at 61.0 nM;
Experiments with [³H]-labelled GABA-competitive ligands (muscimol, GABA) showed no influence of Flucybene up to 10 μM.

Store at room temperature.
1 mg Cloflubicyne can be dissolved in 1 ml ethanol (up to 50 °C), then diluted in distilled water.
Solution for experiments must contain less than 0.5 % ethanol and be stored at 0 °C.
