Brintellix is indicated for the treatment of:
 
a. Hypertension
b. Major Depressive Disorder
c. Arthritis
d. Diabetes mellitus
e. Male pattern baldness

Answer(b): Major depressive disorder. The active ingredient found in Vortioxetine (Brintellix) is Vortioxetine. Each Vortioxetine (Brintellix) tablet contains 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg, or 20 mg of Vortioxetine, respectively. Vortioxetine (Brintellix) is indicated for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD).
 
The recommended starting dose is 10 mg administered orally once daily without regard to meals. Dosage should then be increased to 20 mg/day, as tolerated, because higher doses demonstrated better treatment effects in trials conducted in the United States. The efficacy and safety of doses above 20 mg/day have not been evaluated in controlled clinical trials. A dose decrease down to 5 mg/day may be considered for patients who do not tolerate higher doses.
 
At least 14 days should elapse between discontinuation of a MAOI intended to treat psychiatric disorders and initiation of therapy with Vortioxetine (Brintellix) to avoid the risk of Serotonin Syndrome. Conversely, at least 21 days should be allowed after stopping Vortioxetine (Brintellix) before starting an MAOI intended to treat psychiatric disorders.
 
Nausea, constipation, vomiting, serotonin toxicity and serotonin syndrome are commonly reported side effects of Vortioxetine (Brintellix).
