Antidepresivos

Antidepressants are medications used to treat depression and certain related conditions by balancing chemicals in the brain called neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and norepinephrine. These chemicals influence mood, emotions, and energy levels. Antidepressants can help improve mood, increase activity levels, and restore a sense of well-being. They usually take several weeks to become effective and are often part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes therapy and lifestyle changes. While they don't work for everyone and may have side effects, they are a valuable tool in managing depression and related mental health issues under medical supervision.
