Lacotide 100mg Tablet

Product Introduction

This medicine can be taken with or without meals, but it is recommended to take it at the same time each day for better results. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. Keeping a backup stock is advised as skipping doses can increase the risk of seizures. Do not stop the treatment suddenly without consulting your doctor, as it may cause seizure recurrence. Before starting, inform your doctor if you have any heart problems.

Some people may experience side effects such as dizziness, headache, nausea, blurred vision, dry mouth, muscle stiffness, or double vision.
