General description

(S)-Duloxetine hydrochloride belongs to the class of serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. Duloxetine is a thiophene derivative. It is used to treat stress urinary incontinence, psychiatric and metabolic disorders. It is also used for treating diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, chronic musculoskeletal and low back pain (LBP). Duloxetine is a cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) inhibitor.

Application

(S)-Duloxetine hydrochloride has been used as an antidepressant in rats exposed to chronic mild stress (CMS).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Duloxetine hydrochloride is a dual serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), widely used clinically as an antidepressant and anxiolytic.

The standard pharmacological treatment of the major depressive disorder (MDD) is still grounded in a monoaminergic approach. Consequently, antidepressant treatments pursue to heighten serotonergic and noradrenergic neurotransmissions. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the impact of exposure
