What is Fluvoxin?
Fluvoxin containing the active ingredient fluvoxamine is an antidepressant in a group of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI). The medication is used mainly to treat various neural conditions such as major depressive disorders, obsessive compulsive disorders (OCD), social anxiety disorders (SAD), panic disorders and post traumatic stress disorders (PTSD). It works by restoring the balance of certain natural substances in the brain to prolong their mood enhancing effects.

How is Fluvoxin used?
Fluvoxin is usually taken orally 1 to 2 times per day or as directed by a doctor. Dosage will depend on the patient's condition and their reaction to the medication, contact a doctor for the correct dosage. It is recommended for patients that only need one dose to take it at bedtime. If the patient requires 2 doses daily it should be taken once in the morning and once at bedtime. It is essential not to stop the medication without a doctor's consent as it may cause severe withdrawal symptoms such as mood swings, headaches, fatigue and sleep changes.
