Product Overview
Maxgalin 150 Capsule is used to relieve nerve-related pain (neuropathic pain) caused by conditions such as diabetes, shingles (herpes zoster), spinal injuries, or other disorders. It is also effective in reducing widespread muscle pain and stiffness associated with fibromyalgia.
This medicine belongs to the class of anti-epileptic drugs and can be used alongside other medications to manage certain types of seizures. In some cases, it may also be prescribed to alleviate symptoms of anxiety if other treatments are unsuitable.
How to Take
Maxgalin 150 Capsule can be taken with or without food, but it is important to take it at the same time each day to maintain steady levels in the body. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose and may start at a lower amount, gradually increasing it for best results. It may take several weeks for the medicine to show its full effect. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and continue the treatment until advised to stop. Missing doses can worsen your condition.
Possible Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and resolve on their own. Common effects include drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, blurred vision, weight gain, swelling (edema), and difficulty concentrating. Discuss any side effects with your doctor to learn ways to manage or reduce them.
Precautions
Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
