• Treatment of major depressive disorder (depression), including persistent low mood, loss of interest, fatigue, and sleep disturbances.
• Management of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), helping reduce recurrent intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors.
• Treatment of panic disorder, with or without agoraphobia, helping decrease frequency and intensity of panic attacks.
• Management of social anxiety disorder (social phobia), reducing excessive fear and anxiety in social or performance situations.
• May be used in other anxiety-related conditions only as directed by a physician.

• Typical adult dose: One controlled-release tablet once daily, usually in the morning. Exact dose and duration are determined by your doctor based on your condition and response.

• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.
