Mode of Action of Antidep 75 MG
How Does It Work?
Imipramine is the active ingredient in Antidep 75 mg tablets. This medicine belongs to the tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) class of drugs. It acts by increasing certain hormones in the brain, such as 5-hydroxytryptamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. Antidep 75 mg tablets start working within a few minutes of taking it and stay in the blood for a long time. Therefore, the dose is adjusted significantly for older adults. Antidep 75 mg tablets are used to treat severe depression or when other medicines to treat this condition have not worked. Antidep 75 mg tablets work by helping elevate mood and remove sadness, anger and nervousness. This is due to the blocking effect of Antidep 75 mg tablets on a hormone responsible for the involuntary action of muscles. This helps in stopping the unintentional passing of urine during sleep in children. It is also used as part of the therapy for treating bedwetting in children above 6 or 7 years of age.
