Citalopram

We are offering citalopram.
Citalopram is a furancarbonitrile that is one of the serotonin uptake inhibitors used as an antidepressant. The drug is also effective in reducing ethanol uptake in alcoholics and is used in depressed patients who also suffer from tardive dyskinesia in preference to tricyclic antidepressants, which aggravate this condition.
Citalopram is a bicyclic phthalene derivative and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (ssri), with antidepressant and anxiolytic activities. Citalopram selectively inhibits the neuronal reuptake of the neurotran smitter serotonin (5-ht) in presynaptic cells in the central nervous system, thereby increasing levels of 5-ht within the synaptic cleft and enhancing the actions of serotonin on its receptors. Increased seroto- nergic neurotransmission results in antidepressive and anxiolytic effects.
