About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Lupivor 10mg Tablet contains Vortioxetine 10mg, an antidepressant indicated for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults. Vortioxetine is a multimodal serotonergic agent that functions primarily as a serotonin reuptake inhibitor and modulator of various serotonin receptors, including agonist activity at 5-HT1A receptors and antagonist activity at 5-HT3 and 5-HT7 receptors. This unique mechanism enhances serotonergic neurotransmission, contributing to its antidepressant and anxiolytic effects. Lupivor is prescribed to alleviate symptoms of depression such as persistent sadness, loss of interest, and impaired daily functioning. The recommended dose is typically 10mg once daily, with adjustments based on clinical response and tolerability. It is important to monitor patients for potential side effects, including nausea, headache, dizziness, and gastrointestinal disturbances, which are generally mild to moderate and transient. Caution is advised when co-administered with other serotonergic agents due to the risk of serotonin syndrome. Lupivor should be used under medical supervision, with careful assessment of suicide risk, especially during initial treatment phases. Regular follow-up is essential to evaluate therapeutic efficacy and safety. This medication is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to vortioxetine or any excipients.
