dual action Explanation: "Three dual action antidepressants are identified: venlafaxine, mirtazapine and milnacipran. These are more effective and better tolerated than the older tricyclic antidepressants in the treatment of an acute episode of depression and in the prevention of relapse. They also offer advantages in that they lack autonomic side-effects of the tricyclics. However, sedation, nausea and sexual side-effects may occur with venlafaxine, and weight gain with mirtazapine."

SNRI Explanation: Kaksikanavainen antidepressiiva is SNRI antidepressant in English. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs (2006-11-28 09:37:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Tuo sana "kaksikanavainen" on huono termi eikä sitä paljon käytetäkään. Suomeksikin pitäisi puhua SNRI-lääkkeistä, joka on selkeä termi. Linkistä http://www.biovita.fi/suomi/terveyssivut/masennuslaakkeet.ht... "...masennuslääkkeet vaikuttavat eri teitä sen mukaan, onko kyse vanhoista trisyklisistä vai uudemmista serotoniinin takaisinottoa estävistä SSRI-lääkkeistä ja serotoniinin ja noradrenaliinin takaisinottoa estävistä SNRI-lääkkeistä. Uusien raporttien mukaan jotkut masennuslääkket saattavat aiheuttaa serotoniinimyrkytyksen; kaikki lääkkeet eivät toimikaan ihmisellä samalla tavalla kuin koe-eläimillä, joilla niitä ensin testataan (Biological Psychiatry 2006).
