CAS 78246-49-8: Paroxetine hydrochloride
Description:Paroxetine hydrochloride is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) primarily used in the treatment of major depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, and other mood-related conditions. It is characterized by its chemical formula, which includes a piperidine ring and a phenyl group, contributing to its pharmacological activity. The substance appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in water, making it suitable for various pharmaceutical formulations. Paroxetine hydrochloride works by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin in the brain, thereby increasing serotonin levels and improving mood. It is typically administered in oral form, with dosage adjusted based on the specific condition being treated. Common side effects may include nausea, dizziness, and sexual dysfunction, among others. Due to its effects on serotonin levels, caution is advised when prescribing it alongside other medications that influence serotonin, to avoid potential interactions such as serotonin syndrome. Overall, paroxetine hydrochloride is a widely used antidepressant with a well-established efficacy profile.
