An inhibitor is a substance that slows down or prevents a chemical reaction or the activity of an enzyme. It works by binding to the enzyme or another molecule involved in the reaction, thereby altering its structure or blocking its active site, which reduces its ability to facilitate the reaction. Inhibitors can be reversible, where they temporarily bind to the target, or irreversible, where they permanently inactivate the target. This mechanism is crucial in various biological processes and is commonly utilized in pharmaceuticals to regulate metabolic pathways.

What neurotransmitter does a SNRI 'Serotonin Norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor' drug work on?
The S stands for serotonin and the N stands for norepinephrine and RI stands for reuptake inhibitor. So, obviously these drugs are supposed to work on both serotonin and norepinephrine. However, some literature uses SNRI to mean Selective Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor, and this will work better on norepinephrine. Then you have the SSRI which is Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor, which works better on serotonin.

Is losartin an maoi inhibitor?
Losartan is not a monoamine oxidase inhibitor. It is an Angiotensin Receptor Blocker.
Is Losartan Potassium an Ace Inhibitor?
No, Losartan Potassium is not an ACE inhibitor. It belongs to a class of medications called angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), which work by blocking the effects of angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels. ACE inhibitors, on the other hand, work by blocking the enzyme that produces angiotensin II.
