Muskan Shaikh*

ABSTRACT

This review examines the Psychiatric disorder and bidirectional impact of the gut-brain axis: consequences for medication development. It examines new research that ties changes in the gut microbiota to the pathophysiology of a number of mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia, anxiety, and depression. The study also emphasizes how focusing on the gut-brain axis during the drug development process for mental health conditions may have therapeutic benefits. This abstract highlights the importance of the gut-brain axis in forming innovative therapeutic approaches and advances our understanding of its involvement in mental illnesses by clarifying the intricate interactions between the gut and the central nervous system.

Keywords: Anatomy of gut-brain axis, Neurotransmitters And Signaling, Microbiota, Psychiatric disorder.
