| # | Definition | Sets | |
| 1 | remeron | 36 sets | |
| 2 | antidepressant | 4 sets | |
| 3 | remeron. increases ne and 5ht transmission via complicated presynaptic mechanism. specific stimulant of 5ht1 receptors. 5ht2,3 receptors are blocked. lots of histamine blockade aka very sedative. increases appetite and body weight. 1/2 life is 20-40 hours. take at bedtime | 3 sets | |
| 4 | atypical antidepressants; strong 5ht2/3 + central adrenalr agonist -> enhanced transmission | 3 sets | |
| 5 | atypical antidepressant | 2 sets | |
| 6 | antidepressant, inhibit alpha-2 adrenergic autoreceptor | 2 sets | |
| 7 | antidepressants, α2 antagonist (increased ne and 5-ht), h1 receptor antagonist, causes appetite stimulation | 2 sets | |
| 8 | an atypical anti-depressant that works at serotonin receptors and causes no sexual disturbances but is very sedating and can be used for sleep | 1 set | |
| 9 | a/depressant | 1 set | |
| 10 | alpha-2 antagonist | 1 set | |
| 11 | nassa, blocks alpha 2 receptor and h1 receptor, increases cholesterol and triglycerides | 1 set | |
| 12 | (remeron), nassa =serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor | 1 set | |
| 13 | depression. tox: sedataion, increase serum cholesterol, inc appetite | 1 set | |
| 14 | remeron - tca atypical, sedation, dizziness, dry mouth/throat, weight gain, constipation, sexual dysfunction, **adverse, black tongue ** give in pm | 1 set | |
| 15 | second/third generation of antidepressant, inhibits alpha 2 receptors thus increasing seratonin | 1 set | |
