Depricap 20mg Capsules – Fluoxetine Hcl for Depression & Anxiety
Description
Depricap 20mg Capsules – Fluoxetine HCl SSRI Antidepressant
Depricap 20mg Capsules contain Fluoxetine Hydrochloride, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) widely prescribed for the treatment of major depressive disorder, generalised anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, and bulimia nervosa.
Fluoxetine works by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin in the brain, increasing the availability of this neurotransmitter at synapses. By restoring serotonin balance, Depricap helps relieve persistent sadness, anxiety, obsessive thoughts, and panic episodes, while improving sleep quality, energy, and overall daily functioning.
Depricap 20mg is prescribed for both short-term and long-term management of mental health conditions. The capsule is usually taken once daily and may take 2–4 weeks to reach full therapeutic effect. Regular medical supervision is important — do not stop or adjust the dose without your prescribing doctor's guidance, as abrupt discontinuation can cause discontinuation syndrome.
For patients who cannot swallow capsules, the same active ingredient is available as Depricap Liquid 60ml (Fluoxetine oral solution) — suitable for adults and children as prescribed.
