Product Introduction
Nortimer 25mg Tablet is a tricyclic antidepressant used to treat conditions such as depression, nighttime bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis), and sometimes nerve-related pain. It works by balancing certain natural substances in the brain that help improve mood and overall mental state. Since it may cause drowsiness, it is generally recommended to take it before going to bed. This medicine can be taken with or without food, but try to take it at the same time each day for maximum benefit. The exact dose and duration will be decided by your doctor, based on your condition and response to treatment.
Some commonly seen side effects include a faster heartbeat, blurred vision, dry mouth, constipation, and difficulty passing urine. In the beginning, it may also cause a sudden drop in blood pressure when you stand up or sit up quickly, which can lead to dizziness or fainting. To reduce this effect, change positions slowly. It may also cause drowsiness and weight gain in some individuals. Most side effects are mild and temporary, but if they continue or become troublesome, speak to your doctor. Serious side effects are rare but should not be ignored.
Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking or any health conditions you have. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should use this medication only under medical supervision. Do not stop taking it suddenly as it may lead to withdrawal symptoms. If you experience mood changes, suicidal thoughts, or thoughts of self-harm, seek medical help immediately. Avoid consuming alcohol while on this medicine as it can increase the risk of severe side effects.
