question: which class of medications works by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine?
- ssris
- snris
- maois
- ndris
Brief Explanations
To solve this, we analyze each option:
- SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) only inhibit serotonin reuptake.
- SNRIs (Serotonin - Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors) are known to inhibit the reuptake of both serotonin and norepinephrine.
- MAOIs (Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors) work by inhibiting the enzyme MAO, not by reuptake inhibition of these two neurotransmitters.
- NDRIs (Norepinephrine - Dopamine Reuptake Inhibitors) inhibit reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine, not serotonin and norepinephrine.
So the correct class is SNRIs.
