Biological Activity
setiptiline is a tetracyclic antidepressant (teca) which acts as a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant (nassa). setiptiline acts as a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist, and serotonin receptor antagonist, likely at the 5-ht2a, 5-ht2c, and/or 5-ht3 subtypes, as well as an h1 receptor inverse agonist/antihistamine. from wikipedia.
