How To Get Rid Of Depression With Stablon

While we all at some point of our lifetime suffer from depression or some depressive phase, depression is a frequent phenomenon or a chronic disorder in certain individuals especially the elderly. This type of depression which lasts for more than three months is termed as clinical depression in medical science. And this type of depression can only be treated with the help of prescription and over the counter medicines.

As more and more people due given the highly stressful environment we live in today are falling a prey to depression and depressive thinking, more and more anti depressant medicines of different types are flooding the market shelves to cater to this rising demand. While these anti depressants do work in treating depression and curing the person of depressive thoughts and behavior, most of these medicines have serious side effects.

Developed by Servier Laboratoires in France, Stablon also known as Tianeptine is truly unique and and effective anti depressant medication which is completely devoid of any adverse effects generally associated with anti depressant medicines. So while stablon provides all the benefits of an anti depressant medication like Prozac and paxil, it does not cause any serious side effects like side effects the loss of libido, drowsiness and weight gain etc. generally associated with these above mentioned medicines.

The main reason behind this is that unlike the conventional anti depressants which maximize the serotonin levels by blocking uptake, Stablon is an anti depressant which increases the body's uptake or absorption of this important neurotransmitter to increase energy and elevate mood while not harming or interfering with body's other processes.

Thus in a way stablon does just the opposite of what conventional anti depressant do to the body to cure depression. So while drugs like Prozac and Paxil keep serotonin in the system and discourage the body to uptake the important neurotransmitter, stablon does exactly the reverse and stimulates the body to take serotonin out of the system. The aim behind the process is to reduce the body's brain and hormonal response to stress.

So if you are considering to take some anti depressant medication to get rid of your depression or depressed phase, we recommend you take stablon. Not only will stablon motivate your thinking and calm your mind but will also help you get rid all kinds of depression including depression linked to old age and alcoholism.

The recommended dosage is one tablet three times a day taken before each meal. However, elderly patients are advised to take a lower dose. Mild and rare side effects include abdominal pain, dry mouth, loss of appetite, vomiting, flatulence, insomnia, and drowsiness.

Ward Away Worries and Stress with Pregnenolone

Pregnenolone is one of the most important hormones produced by our body. Considering its essential role in maintaining overall health and vitality of the body, it is often considered as the mother of all steroid hormones present in the human body.


Though pregnenolone is not a steroid hormone in itself, it pregnenolone which triggers the production of all other steroid hormones in the body such as cortisone, Progesterone, estrogen, testosterone and DHEA. This essential hormone is produced in the mitochondria of cells present in the adrenal gland and the central nervous system.


Use and role of Pregnenolone as an anti inflammatory medication and stress relief drug was first studied in the 1940s and 1950s involving some factory workers as the subjects. Use of pregnenolone showed increased productivity and reduced stress in the workers. Moreover, many workers suffering from arthritis and allergies also benefited from this drug, as pregnenolone remarkably reduced the inflammation and pain associated with the condition.

However, due to the discovery of cortisol and its advantages during the same time period overshadowed pregnenolone as an anti depressant medicine. Interest in pregnenolone anti anxiety and anti inflammatory benefits was rekindled in the 1990s as pregnenolone was found to be the precursor of all steroid and stress busting hormones.


Moreover, it was also observed that with time, the levels of pregnenolone decline in the body leading to the further diminished levels of other stress busting hormones in the body. By the time people reach the age of 70, 60% pregnenolone is already reduced in their bodies. This is another reason for many elderly people disposed to worrying about minor issues, feeling low and deprived of energy, lacking in interest in day to activities, forgetting things, falling frequently into depression and other disorders etc.


Sometimes, in certain specific conditions such as stress, depression, hypothyroidism and toxin exposure pregnenolone levels in an individual decline at a much faster rate than normal making a person prone to stress and disease. Such conditions also increase a person's requirement for pregnenolone supplementation for proper mental and physical health.


Thus pregnenolone has multiple benefits ranging from its use an anti depressant medicine for depressed people to anti inflammatory medication for arthritis treatment to enhancing memory in the elderly to fighting fatigue and brightening the mood for an overall sense of well being and optimum health. Consult a doctor for the correct dosage for your particular need and condition.
