A GABA transaminase inhibitor is an enzyme inhibitor that acts upon GABA transaminase.

Examples include valproic acid, vigabatrin, phenylethylidenehydrazine, ethanolamine-O-sulfate (EOS), and L-cycloserine.

Certain members of this class are used as anticonvulsants.

There is some evidence that Melissa officinalis (lemon balm), and the rosmarinic acid it contains, inhibits GABA transaminase.
