2. 5-Hydroxytryptophan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-Hydroxytryptophan

   5-HTP is produced from the amino acid tryptophan through the action of the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase. Tryptophan hydroxylase is one of the biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. Production of 5-HTP is the rate-limiting step in 5-HT (serotonin) synthesis. 5-HTP is normally rapidly converted to 5-HT by amino acid decarboxylase. [1]

3. Oxitriptan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxitriptan

   5-HTP is rapidly absorbed with a t max of ≈1.5 h, and rapidly eliminated with a half-life of ≈1.5 – 2 h. Co-administration of a decarboxylase inhibitor (e.g., carbidopa, benserazide ) doubles the half-life of 5-HTP to ≈ 3 – 4 h , [ 37 ] [ 34 ] and enhances exposure several-fold, depending on the dosing regimen.

5. Noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noradrenergic_and_specific...

   They act by antagonizing the α 2-adrenergic receptor and certain serotonin receptors such as 5-HT 2A and 5-HT 2C, [1] but also 5-HT 3, [1] 5-HT 6, and/or 5-HT 7 in some cases. By blocking α 2 -adrenergic autoreceptors and heteroreceptors , NaSSAs enhance adrenergic and serotonergic neurotransmission in the brain involved in mood regulation ...

6. Serotonin reuptake inhibitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serotonin_reuptake_inhibitor

   A serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SRI) is a type of drug which acts as a reuptake inhibitor of the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, or 5-HT) by blocking the action of the serotonin transporter (SERT). This in turn leads to increased extracellular concentrations of serotonin and, therefore, an increase in serotonergic ...

7. Frovatriptan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frovatriptan

   Frovatriptan is a serotonin receptor agonist, with high affinity for the 5-HT 1B/1D receptors. It has no significant effects on the GABA A mediated channel activity and benzodiazepine binding sites. Frovatriptan inhibits excessive dilation of arteries that supply blood to the head.
