Bupropion and Mirtazapine both come up in the same conversations; they overlap on Norepinephrine. Bupropion: Bupropion is an atypical antidepressant of the aminoketone class that works mainly as a norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Mirtazapine: Mirtazapine is a tetracyclic antidepressant, often classified as a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant (NaSSA), used primarily to treat major depressive disorder.
Bupropion is an atypical antidepressant of the aminoketone class that works mainly as a norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor. It is used to treat major depressive disorder and seasonal affective disorder and, under a separate brand, as an aid to quitting smoking; it is also part of a combination weight-loss product. Unlike many antidepressants it has little direct effect on serotonin and rarely causes sexual dysfunction or weight gain.
Mirtazapine is a tetracyclic antidepressant, often classified as a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant (NaSSA), used primarily to treat major depressive disorder. Rather than blocking the reuptake of neurotransmitters like most modern antidepressants, it works by blocking a set of receptors, which increases noradrenaline and serotonin signaling and produces marked sedative and appetite-stimulating effects. Introduced in the 1990s and sold under brand names such as Remeron, it is a prescription medicine available as a generic.
