    Summary TheDrug.Wiki TripSit

    Viloxazine is a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (NRI) that also modulates serotonergic activity as a 5-HT2B antagonist and 5-HT2C agonist. Originally used as an antidepressant in Europe (1974-2002), it was repurposed and FDA-approved in 2021 for ADHD treatment in the US under the brand name Qelbree. It is generally well-tolerated but may cause insomnia, irritability, somnolence, or gastrointestinal upset.
