Stalopam 10 mg Escitalopram Tablets

Stalopam 10 mg (Escitalopram Oxalate) is an antidepressant medication belonging to the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) class. It is prescribed to manage conditions such as major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and related mental health conditions.

Mechanism of Action

Escitalopram functions by selectively inhibiting the serotonin transporter (SERT), effectively increasing extracellular serotonin levels in the brain with minimal affinity for norepinephrine or dopamine receptors. As the active S-enantiomer of citalopram, it provides focused pharmacological activity designed to help regulate mood and reduce symptoms of anxiety.

Administration & Usage

Stalopam tablets are administered orally, once daily in the morning or evening, with or without food. Dosage adjustments should be determined by a healthcare professional based on individual clinical response and tolerability.
