Active ingredients

The drug APONAL contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1 Doxepin
UNII 3U9A0FE9N5 - DOXEPIN HYDROCHLORIDE

Doxepin is not a central nervous system stimulant nor a monoamine oxidase inhibitor. The current hypothesis is that the clinical effects are due, at least in part, to influences on the adrenergic activity at the synapses so that deactivation of noradrenaline by reuptake into the nerve terminals is prevented.
