mianserin and Lung Diseases, Interstitial

mianserin has been researched along with Lung Diseases, Interstitial in 1 studies

Mianserin: A tetracyclic compound with antidepressant effects. It may cause drowsiness and hematological problems. Its mechanism of therapeutic action is not well understood, although it apparently blocks alpha-adrenergic, histamine H1, and some types of serotonin receptors.
mianserin : A dibenzoazepine (specifically 1,2,3,4,10,14b-hexahydrodibenzo[c,f]pyrazino[1,2-a]azepine) methyl-substituted on N-2. Closely related to (and now mostly superseded by) the tetracyclic antidepressant mirtazapinean, it is an atypical antidepressant used in the treatment of depression throughout Europe and elsewhere.

Lung Diseases, Interstitial: A diverse group of lung diseases that affect the lung parenchyma. They are characterized by an initial inflammation of PULMONARY ALVEOLI that extends to the interstitium and beyond leading to diffuse PULMONARY FIBROSIS. Interstitial lung diseases are classified by their etiology (known or unknown causes), and radiological-pathological features.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Since pulmonary fibrosis is a recognized, if rare, complication of certain drug exposures, including antidepressants, betablockers, antibiotics, anticonvulsants, and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), we tested the hypothesis that exposure to these drugs might contribute to the etiology of cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis."1.30Exposure to commonly prescribed drugs and the etiology of cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis: a case-control study. ( Britton, J; Cooper, M; Hubbard, R; Johnston, I; Smith, C; Venn, A, 1998)
