Overview
Ventab XL 75mg contains venlafaxine in an extended-release (XL) form, an antidepressant from the SNRI (serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor) group. It is a prescription medicine used to treat depression and anxiety disorders, including generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety and panic disorder. Venlafaxine works by helping to restore the balance of two natural brain chemicals. Serotonin and noradrenaline. That influence mood. The extended-release tablet releases the medicine slowly through the day, allowing convenient once-daily dosing. Ventab XL supports people managing low mood and anxiety as part of ongoing treatment.
Venlafaxine (as hydrochloride) 75mg, extended-release.
