cis-(1R,2S)-2-(aminomethyl)-N,N-diethyl-1-phenylcyclopropane-1-carboxamide
Milnacipran is a selective serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor primarily used for the treatment of depression and fibromyalgia. It works by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine in the central nervous system, which increases the availability of neurotransmitters. The substance has a moderate adverse effects profile and is often used in patients who do not respond adequately to other antidepressants.

Receptor Profile
Der Serotonintransporter (SERT/5-HTT) ist ein Natrium-abhängiger Monoamintransporter, der Serotonin aus dem synaptischen Spalt zurück in die präsynaptische Zelle transportiert. Er ist das primäre Ziel von SSRI und MDMA.
Der Noradrenalintransporter (NET) ist ein Monoamintransporter, der Noradrenalin aus dem synaptischen Spalt zurücktransportiert. Er wird von verschiedenen Stimulanzien und Antidepressiva beeinflusst.
