About CITARA 10MG TABLET

CITARA 10MG TABLET is a type of antidepressant that belongs to the class of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) and is primarily used to treat depression and other mental health conditions, including anxiety, panic disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Depression is a mood disorder that affects day to day life of a person. A person may have symptoms such as feeling sad or feeling of loss and might have mood swings. Anxiety is defined as an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts, and symptoms like increased blood pressure.

In Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), a person feels the need to think or perform things repeatedly.

CITARA 10MG TABLET works by increasing serotonin levels. Serotonin is a chemical messenger in the brain responsible for improving mood and physical symptoms of depression. It is also responsible for relieving symptoms of anxiety, panic attacks, and obsessive-compulsive disorders.
