Mechanism of action

By increasing the levels of serotonin and norepinephrine, PRC-063 oral capsules help to improve mood, reduce pain, and increase energy levels. This is achieved by blocking the reuptake of these neurotransmitters, allowing them to remain in the synaptic cleft for a longer period and increasing their availability for binding to their respective receptors.
