The substances contained in these preparations improve the work of the neurotransmitters - serotonin and norepinephrine. Most of them slow down the absorption of noradrenaline and serotonin, thereby increasing the concentration of these hormones in the body.

Antidepressants can be divided into three groups:

  1. Non-selective tricyclic antidepressants. Affect all symptoms of depression, but the result is achieved quite a long time. They are not recommended for patients suffering from glaucoma, heart rhythm disturbances, hypertension, hyperthyroidism;
  2. Selective antidepressants - are used in the treatment of depressive disorders and low intensity of primary symptoms and anxiety. They are not used during pregnancy and lactation, with epilepsy and liver disease.
  3. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI) are enzymes that can inhibit noradrenaline and serotonin, or only one of them. Their action is similar to tricyclic antidepressants - nevertheless, they affect the achievement of the result more quickly. They are not used during pregnancy and lactation. Side effects include dry mouth, dizziness, headaches, drowsiness, abdominal pain, constipation.

Another problem during use is rapid addiction with the need to increase the dose.

Not all people become dependent on benzodiazepines. If you stop taking these drugs, there is no fear of withdrawal symptoms. The problem is that, starting treatment of neuroses, no one can predict which group of drugs will be more effective. Therefore, care must be taken when using anxiolytic drugs.
