How does Etrafon F works?

Etrafon F medicine contains the active ingredient Perphenazine and Amitriptyline, which belongs to the family of medicine that called a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA). Etrafon F affects levels of specific brain chemicals as serotonin, norepinephrine, and acetylcholine; that are thought to be linked to mood, emotions and mental state. Etrafon F works by increasing the amounts of certain natural substances in the central nervous system (CNS) to elevate the mood of people with depression in the brain. When depression occurs, there may be a decreased amount of the chemicals noradrenaline and serotonin released from nerve cells in the brain. When these chemicals are released from nerve cells they act to lighten mood. When they are reabsorbed into the nerve cells, they no longer have an effect on mood. Etrafon F works through preventing this re-absorption of noradrenaline and serotonin back into the nerve cells. So, Etrafon F helps prolong the mood-lightening effect of any released noradrenaline and serotonin. This helps relieve depression. The full reimbursement of treatment with Etrafon F may not occur for two to four weeks. Etrafon F also blocks receptors in other areas of the body resulting in side effects such as urinary retention.
