How Vantaxa 5 Tablet Works :-

Vantaxa 5 Tablet contain Vortioxetine.
Vortioxetine is an selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor ( SSRI ) & serotonin receptor modulator.
Vortioxetine is thought to be connected to its direct modulation of serotonergic receptor activity and inhibition of the serotonin (5-HT) transporter. Nonclinical data suggest that vortioxetine is a 5-HT3, 5-HT7, and 5-HT1D receptor antagonist, 5-HT1B receptor partial agonist, 5-HT1A receptor agonist and inhibitor of the 5-HT transporter, leading to modulation of neurotransmission in critical systems, including predominantly the serotonin but probably also the norepinephrine, dopamine, histamine, acetylcholine, GABA and glutamate systems. This multimodal activity is regard responsible for the antidepressant and anxiolytic-like effects and the improvement of cognitive function, learning and memory observed with vortioxetine in animal studies. However, the exact contribution of the individual targets to the observed pharmacodynamic profile remains unclear and caution should be applied when extrapolating animal data directly to man.
Vortioxetine works mostly by increasing the amount of serotonin, a natural substance in the brain that helps control mental balance.
Thus, Vantaxa 5 Tablet treat to major depressive disorder (MDD).
