Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Medications that increase the availability of norepinephrine or serotonin in the nervous system are called antidepressants. Therefore, option C is the correct choice. Antipsychotics are medications used to treat psychotic disorders like schizophrenia, mood stabilizers are used to stabilize mood in conditions like bipolar disorder, and anticonvulsants are used to control seizures. These medications do not affect norepinephrine or serotonin levels in the brain.
