WHAT DESVEN IS USED
FOR
_WHAT IT DOES _
Desvenlafaxine is used in the
treatment and prevention of relapse
of depression. Depression can affect
your whole body and may cause
emotional and physical symptoms
such as feeling low in spirit, being
unable to enjoy life, poor appetite or
overeating, disturbed sleep, loss of
sex drive, lack of energy and feeling
guilty over nothing.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS ABOUT WHY DESVEN HAS
BEEN PRESCRIBED FOR YOU.
Your doctor may have prescribed it
for another reason.
_ _
_HOW IT WORKS _
DESVEN contains the active
ingredient called desvenlafaxine. It
belongs to a class of medications
called Serotonin-Noradrenaline
Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs).
Serotonin and noradrenaline are
chemical messengers that allow
certain nerves in the brain to work.
DESVEN tablets increase the level of
these two messengers. Experts think
this is how it helps to restore your
feeling of wellness.
DESVEN is not addictive. It is
available only with a doctor's
prescription.

intervals of not less than 7 days. The maximum dose should not exceed
200 mg/day.
