Application

R-(−)-Fluoxetine hydrochloride has been used as a serotonin reuptake inhibitor:
  • to study its effects on the embryoid body (EB) morphogenesis
  • in combination with muscimol hydrobromide (MUS) as well as individually to study its neurotoxic effects on neuronal cells grown on multielectrode array (MEA) chips
  • to study its effects as an endocrine disruption inducer in Pimephales promelas

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fluoxetine exhibits anti-depressant activity by increasing the serotonin levels in the neuron synaptic space. It also exhibits therapeutic effects against depression and other mood disorders.
