Neurokem NT 50 Tablet

Product Overview:
Neurokem NT 50 Tablet is a combination medication formulated to treat neuropathic pain. It helps reduce pain by blocking the transmission of pain signals to the brain.

This tablet can be taken with or without food, but it is recommended to take it at bedtime for better effectiveness. Consistency is important, so take it at the same time every day to maintain steady levels of the medicine in your bloodstream. Follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and duration. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but never double the dose. Complete the full course even if your symptoms improve, and do not stop the medication abruptly without consulting your healthcare provider.

Possible Side Effects:
Common side effects may include constipation, nausea, vision changes, and increased sweating. You might also experience dizziness and drowsiness, so avoid activities that require full attention, such as driving, until you know how this medicine affects you. Weight gain can occur, so maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise is advised. Inform your doctor immediately if you notice any mood changes, worsening depression, or suicidal thoughts.

Before starting Neurokem NT 50 Tablet, disclose your full medical history to your doctor, especially if you have liver or kidney problems. Also, inform them about any other medications you are taking, as they may affect how this medicine works.

How It Works:
This tablet combines two active ingredients: Pregabalin and Nortriptyline. Pregabalin reduces pain by modulating calcium channels in nerve cells, decreasing nerve excitability. Nortriptyline is an antidepressant that increases levels of serotonin and noradrenaline, chemicals that help block pain signals in the brain. Together, they effectively alleviate nerve pain.
