Vortioxetine, sold under the brand name Trintellix among others, is an antidepressant of the serotonin modulator and stimulator (SMS) class.[15][3] Its effectiveness is viewed as similar to that of other antidepressants.[15] It is taken orally.[15]

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, constipation, and sexual dysfunction.[15][11] Serious side effects may include suicide in those under the age of 25, serotonin syndrome, bleeding, mania, and SIADH.[15] A withdrawal syndrome may occur if the medication is abruptly stopped or the dose is decreased.[15] Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding is not generally recommended.[16] Vortioxetine's mechanism of action is not entirely understood but is believed to be related to increasing serotonin levels and possibly interacting with certain serotonin receptors.[15][17][18]

It was approved for medical use in the United States in 2013.[15][19] In 2020, it was the 243rd most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 1 million prescriptions.[20][21]
