It has low affinity for muscarinic cholinergic receptors, for alpha-1, alpha-2, beta-adrenergic receptors, as well as 5-HT_1-like, 5-HT_2-like and histamine (H_1) receptors.
Does not violate psychomotor functions and does not potentiate the inhibitory effect of ethanol on them.
Antidepressant effect appears after 7-14 days of systematic administration. During treatment, there is a decrease in anxiety, depression, and normalization of sleep.

Therefore, the drug should not be used during lactation, unless the potential benefit of the treatment exceeds the possible risk associated with taking the drug.
