Second-generation antidepressants are a "structurally and mechanistically diverse group of drugs that are not tricyclics or monoamine oxidase inhibitors. The most clinically important appear to act selectively on serotonergic systems, especially by inhibiting serotonin reuptake."[1]

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors(SSRI)
Serotonin 5-HT2–receptor agonist
Serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRI)
