What is TRINTELLIX (vortioxetine)?
TRINTELLIX is a prescription medicine used in adults to treat a certain type of depression called
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).

And you’re feeling this overall symptom relief.* Keep it coming.
Patient portrayals.
MDD, a type of depression, is multiple symptoms that can hold you back, like sadness, loss of interest, low energy, difficulty
concentrating or indecisiveness, and trouble with sleep.
*TRINTELLIX may help provide overall relief from MDD in adults. Overall score of symptom reduction was measured on a
standardized depression rating scale in clinical trials. Individual results may vary.
In short-term studies, based on a standardized depression rating scale, the therapeutic effect of TRINTELLIX was generally
seen starting at week 2, with the full effect generally not seen until week 4 or later.
TRINTELLIX had no significant impact on weight in clinical trials. Some reports of weight gain have been received
since product approval.
Please see additional Important Safety Information on next page, and accompanying Important Facts, including Full Boxed
WARNING for Suicidal Thoughts and Actions, and discuss with your doctor.

at establishments spanning juice bars and supper
clubs, Cara became disillusioned by the industry’s
universal waste problem. “It had been drilled
into my head from such a young age that you
don’t waste anything on an animal,” Cara says.
An offer from her employer to do some
occasional butchering at the southern eatery
where she worked was the last push Cara needed
to recommit to her roots. Now she’s an advocate
for sustainable meat consumption, endorsing
a truly omnivorous diet. Her proposal: Let’s eat
less meat, but let’s eat better meat.
Seemore—the name of her company and
a homonym of Seymour—is an homage to the
family’s dear patriarch as well as a nod to Cara’s
dedication to transparency regarding what’s in
