Treatment of major depressive disorder (depression) in adults

Vortioxetine is a multimodal antidepressant that increases serotonin activity in the brain. It inhibits serotonin reuptake and modulates multiple serotonin (5‑HT) receptors, helping improve mood and associated symptoms of depression.

Take by mouth exactly as prescribed, usually once daily, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with water; take it at the same time each day. Do not stop suddenly without medical advice.
