Eprobemide (CAT: I019691) is a non-competitive reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A). It acts by binding to and inhibiting the activity of MAO-A, an enzyme responsible for the breakdown of neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. This pharmacologic action leads to increased levels of these neurotransmitters in the brain, contributing to improved mood and alleviation of depressive symptoms. Eprobemide finds application in the field of pharmaceuticals, specifically as an antidepressant agent targeting the central nervous system and addressing mood disorders.
