Oliza 10 Tablet 1*10

Product introduction
Oliza 10 Tablet is prescribed for the management of schizophrenia, a mental health condition that may cause hallucinations, delusions, and disturbances in thinking and behavior. It is also used to treat mania, a state of abnormally elevated mood and energy levels.

You can take Oliza 10 Tablet with or without meals, but it is best to take it at the same time each day to maintain a steady level of medicine in your body. Follow the dosage and duration recommended by your doctor. If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember. Do not stop taking this medication abruptly without consulting your doctor, as it may lead to worsening of your symptoms.

Some commonly reported side effects include dry mouth, constipation, muscle stiffness, and restlessness. This medicine may initially cause a sudden drop in blood pressure when you change positions, so rise slowly when getting up from sitting or lying down. It can also cause sleepiness and dizziness, so avoid driving or engaging in activities that need full attention until you know how it affects you.

Oliza 10 Tablet may lead to weight gain, increased blood sugar, and elevated cholesterol levels. Adopting a healthy lifestyle through proper diet and regular exercise can help minimize these effects. In rare instances, it may cause serious side effects such as very high blood sugar levels or seizures.
