Edronax (Reboxetine) drug, Edronax Order

     

Generic Name: Reboxetine

Uses of Edronax:

Edronax is an antidepressant known as a selective noradrenaline re-uptake inhibitor. Edronax is indicated for the treatment of depressive illness and for maintaining the clinical improvement in patients initially responding to treatment. This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

Reboxetine works by preventing this re-absorption of noradrenaline back into the nerve cells. Therefore, it helps prolong the mood-lightening effect of any released noradrenaline. This helps relieve depression.
