Mode of Action of Amazeo 100 MG
How Does It Work?
Amisulpride in Amazeo acts by selectively working on certain areas of the brain (dopaminergic receptors), resulting in an increase in the levels of dopamine. Dopamine plays an important role in mood, motivation, memory etc. Low levels of dopamine cause depression. By effectively increasing the levels of dopamine in the body, Amazeo relieves symptoms of depression.
