Mirtazapine is a tetracyclic antidepressant primarily used to treat major depressive disorder (MDD). It enhances central noradrenergic and serotonergic activity by antagonizing presynaptic \u03b12-adrenergic receptors and selective serotonin receptors. Unlike SSRIs, Mirtazapine boosts neurotransmitter release without inhibiting serotonin reuptake, making it effective for patients with depression accompanied by sleep disturbances or appetite loss. Its sedative properties also benefit those with anxiety or insomnia.
Mirtazapine blocks presynaptic \u03b12-adrenergic receptors, enhancing norepinephrine and serotonin release. It also antagonizes 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 receptors, increasing serotonin activity at 5-HT1 receptors, which improves mood and reduces anxiety. Its antihistaminic (H1) action contributes to its sedative effect.
