Escitalopram Tablets 10mg
Jovail – 10
Description
Jovail-10 is the stereoisomeric S-enantiomer of citalopram, which is known in clinical psychopharmacology as having high selectivity. Not being a widespread antidepressant, Escitalopram targets the serotonin transporter (SERT), and the interaction with other neurotransmitter receptors is reduced. This specific process increases the amount of the chemical, which promotes a positive mood and clarity of thoughts (serotonin), in the synaptic gaps of the brain. Being a Lifecare Neuro product, Jovail-10 is produced in compliance with the compliance to the standards of WHO-GMP, which guarantees elevated bioavailability and predictable therapeutic reaction.
