Description
TRANCYP TABLET is a prescription medication containing Tranylcypromine, a non-hydrazine monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), indicated for the management of major depressive episodes, particularly in cases where patients have shown inadequate response to other antidepressants like SSRIs or tricyclics.
TRANCYP acts by irreversibly inhibiting the monoamine oxidase enzyme, thereby increasing the levels of key neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine in the brain. These elevated neurotransmitter levels help alleviate the symptoms of severe or resistant depression.
This medication is often reserved for treatment-resistant cases due to the necessity for dietary restrictions and potential for drug interactions, and it is prescribed under close medical supervision.
Antidepressant – Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitor (MAOI)
Tranylcypromine irreversibly binds to and inhibits monoamine oxidase (types A and B), preventing the breakdown of neurotransmitters. This results in an increase in synaptic availability of mood-regulating chemicals, leading to improved emotional and cognitive function in depressive states.
