Product introduction
Fluvoxin CR 100 Tablet is an antidepressant medicine that belongs to the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) group. It is mainly prescribed for depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). By restoring the balance of certain brain chemicals, it helps improve mood, reduce anxiety, and control repetitive thoughts and behaviors.

How to take it
This medicine can be taken with or without food. The exact dose and duration depend on your doctor’s advice, and treatment usually begins with a small dose that may be increased gradually. It is very important not to stop taking it suddenly or change the dosage on your own, even if you start to feel better. Stopping abruptly may cause withdrawal effects such as anxiety, restlessness, dizziness, sleep problems, or palpitations. For best results, try to take it at the same time every day. Improvement may take a few weeks, so continue using it as prescribed and inform your doctor if you do not notice changes after about four weeks.

Possible side effects
Compared to older antidepressants, Fluvoxin CR 100 Tablet tends to cause fewer side effects. Some people may experience nausea, vomiting, fatigue, dryness in the mouth, sweating, indigestion, nervousness, loss of appetite, or sleep disturbances. Sexual side effects such as low desire, delayed ejaculation, or erectile difficulties can also occur. A few individuals may feel drowsy after taking it. Although most side effects are mild and temporary, contact your doctor if you notice mood changes, worsening depression, or thoughts of self-harm.

Uses
Doctors prescribe this tablet for depression, which causes sadness, hopelessness, lack of energy, and reduced interest in daily life. It also helps in obsessive-compulsive disorder by controlling repetitive actions and unwanted thoughts. With regular use, it supports emotional balance, improves motivation, and enhances quality of life.

How it works
Fluvoxin CR 100 Tablet increases the level of serotonin, a natural substance in the brain that regulates mood and emotions. By stabilizing serotonin, it helps ease depressive symptoms and relieves compulsive behavior.

Safety advice
Avoid alcohol while taking this medicine, as it may increase the risk of side effects. Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding is not considered fully safe, so always consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, or nursing. People with kidney or liver problems should take it with caution, as dose adjustment may be required. It is usually safe for driving, but if you feel unusually sleepy, avoid activities that need full concentration.

Missed dose
If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next one, skip the missed tablet and continue with your normal schedule. Do not take two doses together.
