Support for Mood and Emotional Health
FLUOXETINE CAPSULES USP 20mg is a widely recognized Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI) used to manage various mental health conditions by helping to restore the balance of serotonin, a natural substance in the brain that affects mood. Each capsule contains 20mg of Fluoxetine, conforming to the high standards of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP).
Common Prescribed Uses:
• Major Depressive Disorder (MDD): Helps alleviate symptoms of clinical depression, including persistent sadness and loss of interest.
• Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Assists in controlling and reducing bothersome obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors.
• Panic Disorder: Effective in minimizing the frequency and severity of panic attacks.
• Bulimia Nervosa: Used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan to reduce binge-eating and purging behaviors.
Mechanism of Action:
Fluoxetine acts by blocking the reabsorption of serotonin in the nerve cells, which leads to an increased concentration of serotonin in the synaptic space. This activity helps stabilize mood, reduce anxiety, and improve overall emotional well-being.
