Atomoxetine Hydrochloride

Overview

Basic Info

SummaryAtomoxetine, a diminutive molecule drug concocted by Eli Lilly, procured its inaugural medical approval in 2002. The drug functions as an inhibitor of norepinephrine reuptake in the brain, inducing augmented levels of norepinephrine in the synaptic cleft. The drug's primary indication is for Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity (ADHD), a disorder typified by inattentiveness, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. Atomoxetine is postulated to operate by enhancing focus and concentration in individuals grappling with ADHD. Taking everything into account, atomoxetine's intricate mechanism of action and clinical indications proffer it as a valuable therapeutic option for those affected by ADHD.
