What is Stablon (Tianeptine) used for?

Stablon (Tianeptine) is a selective serotonin reuptake enhancer (SSRE) used to treat patients suffering from depression. The medication balances levels of neurotransmitters in the brain to prevent feelings of guilt, feelings of worthlessness, anxiety, fatigue, or loss of interest in previously enjoyable activities. Your doctor may also prescribe its use for the treatment of other unlisted conditions.

How should I use Stablon (Tianeptine)?

Always use Stablon (Tianeptine) according to your doctor`s instructions to get the most effective results from treatment. One tablet is normally taken each day, but your individual instructions will be determined according to your age, weight, health condition, and the severity of your symptoms. These should be swallowed with a large glass of water and may be taken on an empty stomach, but a snack or meal is recommended before use if you experience nausea. Do not split or crush the tablets prior to use to avoid destroying or altering the effects of their contents.
