Abstract in brief

  • Curcumin, a key compound from Curcuma longa, shows potential antidepressant effects by influencing the monoaminergic system, particularly through increased serotonin and dopamine levels.
  • Curcumin's effectiveness is enhanced when combined with piperine, which improves its bioavailability, leading to greater biological effects and possible synergy with certain antidepressant medications.
  • The study suggests that curcumin, especially with piperine, could be a viable natural treatment option for managing depression.
