S Citadep

S Citadep (Escitalopram Oxalate) is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) which treats major depressive disorder and anxiety by acting on the central nervous system. Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting the reuptake of 5-HT (serotonin), which in turn leads to an increase in the concentration of serotonin in the brain. Resulting from this increased serotonergic activity, the negative effects on the mood, appetite and energy levels caused by depression can be relieved. Acute symptoms of GAD (generalized anxiety disorder), including persistent worrying and nervousness can also be alleviated with this medicine.

S Citadep (Escitalopram Oxalate) is available as either 10mg or 20mg strength tablets. After an assessment of your condition and medical history, your physician will be able to determine the correct dosage. Adult patients affected by depression may be told by the physician responsible for providing treatment to administer 10mg per day (either in the morning time or else at night). After at least 3 weeks, the physician might possibly decide to increase the daily dosage to 20mg per day. Treatment of anxiety or other conditions may require a different dosage schedule. Do not exceed the dosage recommended by your physician.
