Difference between Receptor modulator and Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor

Receptor modulator vs. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor

A receptor modulator, or receptor ligand, is a type of drug which binds to and modulates receptors. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are a class of drugs that are typically used as antidepressants in the treatment of major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders.

Similarities between Receptor modulator and Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor

Receptor modulator and Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Agonist, Ligand (biochemistry), Partial agonist, Receptor (biochemistry), Receptor antagonist.

Agonist
