Phenelzine Sulfate is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) used primarily in the treatment of depression and anxiety disorders. It works by inhibiting the enzyme monoamine oxidase, which breaks down neurotransmitters such as serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. By preventing this breakdown, phenelzine sulfate increases the levels of these neurotransmitters in the brain, thereby improving mood and alleviating symptoms of depression and anxiety. It is particularly effective for patients with atypical depression. Due to its potential for serious interactions with certain foods and medications, its use is typically reserved for cases that do not respond to other antidepressants.
