SSRI

• SSRI stands for Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor
• SSRI's are antidepressants that can be used to increase the amount of serotonin left in the synapse
• SSRI's stop the reuptake / reabsorption of serotonin into the presynaptic neuron meaning there will be an increase in the amount of serotonin in the synapse and the post synaptic neuron is stimulated
