If you're talking about SSRI's, they are "selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors". In the case of depression, your body absorbs the serotonin that you make to scavenge the molecules to make... serotonin. SSRI's stop your body from scavenging the serotonin to get the molecules. SSRI's inhibit the body from "reuptaking" the serotonin. SSRI's are the most natural treatment of depression, since they do not attempt to create an alternative to serotonin, there are minimum side effects. But there are occasionally some side effects, depending on the SSRI that is used.
