  1. MAO Inhibitors Published by : maoinhibitors / /

  2. Treating depression involves a combination of therapy and antidepressant medication. Even then, depression is difficult to treat, especially in younger (children and adolescents) and older (the elderly) patients, as well as in those with histories of chronic disease. There are many options for treating depression, varying from medication to self-help to therapy. Most treatments are combinations of these, specially formed for an individual.Every individual suffering from clinical depression exhibits physical, mental, and psychological symptoms, but the symptoms of one person is almost never the same as another's. This means that, at least to date, there is no known cure-all for depression. It is important to identify the specific symptoms that plague a depressed individual, as well as their frequency and severity, in order to arrive at the best combination of treatment.Medication treatments for depression are quite popular treatments, with antidepressant medications often the first treatment option considered by health professionals. Antidepressants help individuals suffering from depression by relieving its symptoms, therefore making it easier for the patient to realise his/her problems and take appropriate, more effective action to solve them. Some of the more popular medication treatments for depression are listed below.Do you want to learn more? Visit MAO inhibitors.

  3. Tricyclic Drugs These drugs prevent the reuptake of serotonin or norepinephrine (or both) into the presynaptic nerve endings, which results in increased synaptic concentrations of these neurotransmitters. These drugs also cause a reduction in beta-adrenergic receptors. Examples of tricyclic drugs include tricyclic antidepressants (TCA's) such as amitriptyline. TCA's are the most widely used antidepressant drugs in treating depression.MAOI is a Japanese acronym for "Mao (Monoamine oxidase inhibitors)MAO inhibitors stop serotonin and norepinephrine from degrading enzymatically. MAO inhibitors are typically recommended for patients with atypical depression (depression characterised by a desire for sleep and elevated appetite, as compared to insomnia and anorexia), as well as certain patients who do not react to TCAs. MAO inhibitors have a significant chance of toxicity, and patients taking this type of drug must adhere to stringent dietary limits. Isocarboxazid is an MAO inhibitor (Marplan).SSRI stands for Selective Serotonin Reup (Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors).Do you want to learn more? Visit Parnate.

  4. SSR inhibitors are increasingly replacing TCAs as the main treatment for depression, as they have been found to be more efficient and have less side effects. SSR inhibitors have a number of drawbacks, including sleep and gastrointestinal issues, as well as improvements in sexual activity and libido. Fluoxetine (Prozac), sertraline (Zoloft), and paroxetine are also SSR inhibitors (Paxil).Antidepressants are medications that are used to treat depression.Antidepressants work by preventing norepinephrine, serotonin, and epinephrine from being reabsorbed. Antidepressants are not as often used as most drugs owing to a higher risk of side effects. Trazodone (Desyrel), bupropion (Wellbutrin), and maprotiline are antidepressants.Anticonvulsants, antianxiety pills, and antipsychotic drugs are some of the other medicines used to manage depression. Unlike the above drugs, these focus on a single form of distress (or one of its side effects) rather than the root causes. They are often used as adjunctive medications for suicidal people, and they can also be recommended for people with milder symptoms of mental disease.
