Hey all

So here goes, many modern anti-depressants (eg. Zoloft) aren't classified as RIMA drugs but SSRI drugs. Explain sertraline's mode of action and how it compares to that of moclobemide.

Moclobemide is a SSRI drug.

Thanks!

Hi chanelt2:

If you use the keywords on google:

- Reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A (RIMA)
- selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI)
- sertraline
- moclobemide
- monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI)

you will get a lot information about your post, also you'll get some papers about this....
