D000069470	Venlafaxine Hydrochloride	A cyclohexanol and phenylethylamine derivative that functions as a SEROTONIN AND NORADRENALINE REUPTAKE INHIBITOR (SNRI) and is used as an ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENT.	1-(2-(dimethylamino)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl)cyclohexanol HCl,Cyclohexanol, 1-(2-(dimethylamino)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl)-, hydrochloride,Dobupal,Efexor,Effexor,Sila-Venlafaxine,Trevilor,Vandral,Venlafaxine,Wy 45030,Wy-45,030,Wy-45030,Hydrochloride, Venlafaxine,Sila Venlafaxine,Wy 45,030,Wy45,030,Wy45030
D000928	Antidepressive Agents	Mood-stimulating drugs used primarily in the treatment of affective disorders and related conditions. Several MONOAMINE OXIDASE INHIBITORS are useful as antidepressants apparently as a long-term consequence of their modulation of catecholamine levels. The tricyclic compounds useful as antidepressive agents (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, TRICYCLIC) also appear to act through brain catecholamine systems. A third group (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, SECOND-GENERATION) is a diverse group of drugs including some that act specifically on serotonergic systems.

D018490	Serotonin Agents	Drugs used for their effects on serotonergic systems.
