WHAT VENLALIC XL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Venlalic XL contains the active substance venlafaxine. Venlalic XL is
an antidepressant that belongs to a group of medicines
called serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). This
group of medicines is used to treat depression and other
conditions such as anxiety disorders. It is thought that people who
are depressed and/or anxious have lower levels of serotonin
and noradrenaline in the brain. It is not fully understood how
antidepressants work, but they may help by increasing the levels of
serotonin and noradrenaline in the brain.
Venlalic XL is a treatment for adults with depression. Venlalic XL is
also a treatment for adults with the following anxiety
disorders: generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder (fear
or avoidance of social situations) and panic disorder (panic
attacks). Treating depression or anxiety disorders properly is
important to help you get better. If it is not treated, your condition
may not go away and may become more serious and more difficult to
treat.
