Rexipra 20 Tablet

Product Introduction
Rexipra 20 Tablet is commonly prescribed for managing depression and certain mental health conditions such as anxiety disorders, panic disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It belongs to a group of medicines known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).

This medication works by improving mood, reducing stress, and relieving symptoms of anxiety. It can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time every day. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose based on your condition and response to treatment. The treatment usually begins with a lower dose, which may be gradually increased. Do not stop the medication or change the dosage on your own, as this can lead to worsening symptoms or withdrawal effects like restlessness, dizziness, palpitations, trouble sleeping, and anxiety.

It might take a few weeks before you begin to notice improvement, so continue taking it regularly. If there is no change in your symptoms after 4 weeks, inform your doctor. In some cases, taking the medicine in the morning is recommended if you experience difficulty sleeping.

Possible Side Effects
Some common effects you may experience include nausea, tiredness, increased sweating, trouble sleeping, reduced sexual desire, delayed ejaculation, or difficulty achieving orgasm in women. Some individuals may feel drowsy after taking the tablet. Inform your doctor immediately if you notice any sudden mood changes or thoughts of harming yourself.

Precautions Before Use
Let your doctor know if you have a history of seizures, diabetes, kidney or liver problems, heart issues, or if you are taking other antidepressants, especially MAO inhibitors. This is important to avoid harmful drug interactions or complications.
