Description
About Mtaz 15mg
Mtaz 15mg Tablets contain Mirtazapine, a tetracyclic antidepressant of the NaSSA (noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant) class. Mirtazapine enhances noradrenergic and serotonergic neurotransmission by blocking presynaptic alpha-2 adrenergic receptors, and also blocks H1 histamine receptors (contributing to sedation). At 15mg, sedative effects are pronounced, making it particularly useful for patients with depression-related insomnia. Available on prescription only. Use as directed by your psychiatrist ONLY. Do not stop without medical advice.
