Qutan 200 Tablet 1*10

Product Introduction
Qutan 200 Tablet is a prescription medicine used to manage schizophrenia, a mental health condition that may cause hallucinations, delusions, and impaired thinking or behavior. It is also prescribed to treat episodes of mania and bipolar disorder.

This medicine can be taken with or without food, but it is important to take it at the same time each day to maintain a steady level in your body. Follow the dosage and duration as advised by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is close to your next scheduled dose. Do not stop taking Qutan 200 suddenly without consulting your doctor, as this could worsen your condition. In rare cases, discontinue the medicine immediately and seek medical help if you develop symptoms of Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), such as fever, muscle stiffness, seizures, or changes in consciousness.

Some common side effects include low hemoglobin levels, increased triglycerides, decreased cholesterol levels, headaches, dry mouth, dizziness, drowsiness, and symptoms similar to withdrawal. The medicine may initially cause a sudden drop in blood pressure when changing positions, so rise slowly from sitting or lying down. Since it can cause sleepiness or affect concentration, avoid driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how it affects you. Weight gain may occur during treatment, but this can be managed with a healthy diet and regular exercise.

Qutan 200 may increase the risk of developing diabetes, so regular monitoring of blood sugar is recommended. Inform your doctor immediately if you notice mood changes, worsening depression, or thoughts of self-harm.
