Nerve Pain Mein Antidepressant Kyun Dete Hain? (Duloxetine Explained)
Why is an antidepressant like Duloxetine used for nerve pain?
Many patients are surprised when they are prescribed Duloxetine for pain, especially when they know it as an antidepressant.
In this short video, I explain why Duloxetine is commonly used in pain medicine, particularly for nerve pain (neuropathic pain).
Duloxetine works on the central nervous system by increasing the levels of serotonin and noradrenaline (norepinephrine) in the brain and spinal cord. These chemicals play a key role in modulating pain signals, reducing the intensity of pain messages reaching the brain.
This is why Duloxetine is effective in conditions like:
Nerve pain
Chronic pain syndromes
Diabetic neuropathy
Fibromyalgia Pain with anxiety or sleep disturbance
π Important: Duloxetine does not βmaskβ pain. It helps the nervous system process pain signals differently, which can lead to meaningful pain relief in the right patients.
