Oliza 2.5 Tablet

Product Introduction
Oliza 2.5 Tablet is a medication prescribed for managing schizophrenia, a mental health condition that may cause hallucinations, delusions, and difficulty in thinking or behaving clearly. It is also used in the treatment of mania, a state of extremely elevated mood or hyperactivity.

You can take Oliza 2.5 Tablet with or without meals, but it is best to take it at the same time each day to keep a steady level of the medicine in your system. Follow the dosage and duration as instructed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for your next dose, in which case, skip the missed dose. Do not stop taking this medicine suddenly without consulting your doctor, as it could worsen your condition.

Some common side effects include dry mouth, constipation, restlessness, and muscle stiffness. At the beginning of treatment, you might experience a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing up, so rise slowly from sitting or lying down. This medication may also cause dizziness or drowsiness, so avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you.

Oliza 2.5 Tablet may increase body weight, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels. Maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise can help manage these effects. In rare cases, it may lead to serious side effects such as seizures or very high blood sugar levels, so regular monitoring is important.
