Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Rexipra Tablet contains escitalopram as a key ingredient. Serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) modulates various behavioural processes, including mood, memory, fear, anger, appetite, stress response, addiction, sexuality, etc. An increase in serotonin levels directly improves the mood and relieves the user’s symptoms. Rexipra Tablet acts by preventing the reuptake of serotonin by the nerve cells, increasing its concentration. This process results in an increased effect of serotonin in the central nervous system.
