Pharmacology
Indication For the treatment of depression.
Pharmacodynamics Amineptine is an atypical tricyclic antidepressant.
Mechanism of action Amineptine selectively inhibits the reuptake of dopamine and to a lesser extent norepinephrine, thus exerting a powerful and fast-acting antidepressant effect.
