Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Pexeva Work?

Pexeva works by selectively inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin at the presynaptic neuron, which increases serotonin availability in the synaptic cleft. This action is believed to alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety by enhancing serotonergic neurotransmission.

Common Dosages

  • Tablets: Common strengths include 10 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, and 40 mg.

Typical Dosing

  • Adults: The usual starting dose for major depression or anxiety disorders is 20 mg once daily, which may be adjusted based on clinical response. The maximum recommended dose is 60 mg per day.

  • Use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) or within 14 days of stopping an MAOI.


Advice From The Pharmacist
