Escitalopram (Cat.No:I001111) is an antidepressant medication belonging to the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) class. It is primarily used for the treatment of major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder. Escitalopram works by increasing the levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter associated with mood regulation, in the brain.
