Clonil SR 75 mg Tablets contain Clomipramine, a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) used primarily to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), depression, panic disorder, and certain anxiety disorders. Clomipramine works by increasing the levels of neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain, helping to improve mood, reduce anxiety, and control compulsive behaviors.
