How Xepar (Paroxetine) Works

Paroxetine is a selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) which increases serotonergic neurotransmission in the brain via:

• Blocking the reuptake of serotonin (5-HT) into presynaptic neurons.
• The increase in concentration increases the amount of serotonin that is present in the synaptic cell cleft, increasing the transmission of neurotransmitters.
• The increased serotonin signaling results in an improvement in mood, decreased anxiety, and improved control of compulsive and obsessive behavior.

Contrary to antidepressants of the past, SSRIs such as Paroxetine tend to be more focused and are more likely to cause fewer adverse effects.
