But its proposed mechanism is supposedly not like amineptine. No one really knows how tianeptine works. It is commonly called a serotonin reuptake enhancer, so it basically speeds up the flow and firing of serotonin...more is sucked out, but to compensate more is pumped in...and it also somehow boosts dopamine function. And it is my guess it does other stuff that isn't known.

Blueberry, it can be had for about $33 a month if you shop. I'm taking it currently and will continue for a month and see if it seems worth sticking with (I'm not having remarkable results in the first week). Its an interesting class of drugs but I think its safe to say it won't be making it to the American market this late in the game. I hope there is more interest though. SSRI's/Tricyclic's *shudder*

It does give me a transient headache, which I guess could count as something.
