A Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor (SNRI) is a class of medications typically used as antidepressants in the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) and other mood disorders. SNRIs work by inhibiting the reuptake of two important neurotransmitters in the brain — serotonin and norepinephrine. By blocking the reabsorption (reuptake) of these neurotransmitters into the neurons, SNRIs increase the levels and enhance the actions of serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain. Serotonin is involved in mood, emotion, and sleep. Norepinephrine is related to alertness and energy. Increasing the amount of these neurotransmitters improves communication between the brain cells and can have a positive impact on mood and emotion, which is beneficial for patients suffering from depression.

Some commonly prescribed SNRIs include:-

• Venlafaxine (Effexor XR)
• Duloxetine (Cymbalta)
• Desvenlafaxine (Pristiq)
• Levomilnacipran (Fetzima)

SNRIs are also approved to treat other conditions such as anxiety disorders, chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia, and neuropathic pain associated with diabetes.

Market Dynamics:

Rising number of people suffering from depression globally is a major factor driving the market growth of the global serotonin norepinephrine inhibitor market. According to World Health Organization (WHO), over 5.0% of the worldwide population suffers from depression. This number is expected to increase in the near future, due to various factors such as increasing social isolation and stressful work environment, which leads to the development of depression.
