How Auvelia Tablet ER works

Auvelia Tablet ER contains two ingredients. Dextromethorphan hydrobromide can block specific signals in the brain that are often overactive in people with depression. By doing this, it may help calm the brain down and improve mood. It also activates certain brain receptors that help regulate mood and protect the brain. This can help balance the chemicals in your brain that affect how you feel. Bupropion increases the levels of certain chemicals in the brain, specifically dopamine and norepinephrine. These chemicals are involved in mood regulation, and by increasing their levels, bupropion can help improve mood and feelings of well-being.
