Remeron and Tolvon .... Question

Posted by Tepiaca on November 15, 2005, at 23:09:53


Hello
I have learnt here that Remeron is very similar
to Tolvon . The only difference is that
remeron is an antagonist of the receptor 5HT3 and tolvon does not

Question:
what is the benefit of antagonize the Receptor
5HT3 ?

do you believe this makes Remeron better than
Tolvon?

Hi Tepi

>what is the benefit of antagonize the Receptor 5HT3?

5-HT3 antagonists inhibit nausea and vomiting. Although animal studies initially suggested that 5-HT3 antagonists might reduce anxiety, human studies have been disappointing (apparantly).
