Product Introduction
Flunil 20 Capsule is an antidepressant that belongs to a group of medicines known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). It is commonly prescribed to treat depression and other mental health conditions such as panic disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

This medicine works by improving mood and reducing anxiety and stress, helping individuals recover from depression. It is also beneficial in treating bulimia nervosa, an eating disorder, by decreasing binge-eating and purging (vomiting) episodes.

The dosage and duration of treatment will be determined by your doctor to ensure you receive the appropriate amount to manage your symptoms. Usually, treatment begins with a low dose, which may gradually be increased. Do not adjust your dose or stop taking the medicine on your own, even if you feel better, as this may worsen your condition or cause withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, dizziness, restlessness, palpitations, or sleep disturbances.

For best results, take this medication regularly at the same time each day. It may take several weeks to notice improvement. If you do not see any changes after four weeks, inform your doctor. Common side effects may include nausea, dry mouth, loss of appetite, indigestion, fatigue, increased sweating, sinus issues, difficulty sleeping, unusual dreams, or yawning. Some individuals may also experience sexual side effects like decreased libido, delayed ejaculation, or erectile dysfunction. Seek immediate medical advice if you experience sudden mood changes or thoughts of self-harm.

Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you have a history of epilepsy, diabetes, liver or kidney problems, heart conditions, or glaucoma, as these may affect treatment. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use. Some medicines, especially other antidepressants or MAO inhibitors, can interact with Flunil, so make sure your doctor knows about all medications you are taking.
