2. Description of the Related Art As antidepressants, monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptyline and imipramine, and tetracyclic antidepressants such as mianserin and maprotiline have been developed. Recently, serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) such as fluoxetine, satraline and paroxetine have been developed. Among these existing antidepressants, MAO inhibitors are known to have side effects such as liver damage, excessive stimulant effects, toxic psychosis, insomnia, orthostatic hypotension, dizziness, tinnitus, and constipation. Frequent side effects of cyclic antidepressants are due to anticholinergic effects, and are known to be brownish brown, tachycardia, orthostatic hypotension, dizziness, dysregulation and the like.

On the other hand, as anxiolytics, benzodiazepines (BZ) such as diazepam, etizolam, ethyl loflazebate, clothiazepam, tofisopam and non-BZs such as tandospirone citrate are known. Among these, the side effects of BZ anxiolytics include inhibition of motor function, interaction with alcohol and the like, influence on cognitive function (forgetfulness), muscle relaxation, sedation, somnolence, weakness, and the like. . Therefore, there is a need for the development of new antidepressants and anxiolytics with reduced side effects.
