Anti-depressant drugs are used to minimise the effect of depression. These drugs inhibit enzymes catalysing the degradation of the neurotransmitter, noradrenaline. Thus, this neurotransmitter is slowly metabolised and can activate its receptor for longer periods of time. Two antidepressant drugs are Iproniazid and Phenelzine.
