[3] [4] [5] Titrating off of a medication instead of stopping abruptly is recommended in some situations. Glucocorticoids should be tapered after extended use to avoid adrenal insufficiency. [6] Drug titration is also used in phase I of clinical trials. The experimental drug is given in increasing dosages until side effects become intolerable. [7]
Milnacipran inhibits the reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine in an approximately 2:1 ratio, respectively. [15] Milnacipran exerts no significant actions on H 1, α 1, D 1, D 2, and mACh receptors, nor on benzodiazepine and opioid binding sites. [16] [17] [18]
Generally, tapering is done to avoid or minimize withdrawal symptoms that arise from neurobiological adaptation to the drug. [1] [2] Prescribed psychotropic drugs that may require tapering due to this physical dependence include opioids, [3] [4] [5] selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, [6] antipsychotics, [7] anticonvulsants, [8] and ...

Relative to other SNRIs, levomilnacipran, as well as milnacipran, differ in that they are much more balanced reuptake inhibitors of serotonin and norepinephrine. [12] [13] [14] To demonstrate, the serotonin:norepinephrine ratios of SNRIs are as follows: venlafaxine = 30:1, duloxetine = 10:1, desvenlafaxine = 14:1, milnacipran = 1.6:1, and levomilnacipran = 1:2.
