[Guest guest]

respected members,

ATYPICAL ANTIDEPRESSANTS include

• 5HT2 antagonists –trazodone and nefazodone

• SNRI – (serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors) venlafexine and duloxetine

• Alpha 2 receptor blocker- mirtazepine

• Bupropion

REBOXETINE- It is a newer selective adrenaline reuptake blocker with minimal antichilinergic and sedative action with safety in overdose.
