About Sizodon Forte Tablet
Sizodon Forte Tablet is prescribed for managing schizophrenia, a condition that can impact thinking, emotions, and behavior. It works by adjusting the levels of certain chemical messengers in the brain, helping to restore normal thought processes and behavior.

Uses
Sizodon Forte Tablet is primarily used for:
• Managing schizophrenia

Benefits
Sizodon Forte Tablet helps correct chemical imbalances in the brain that contribute to abnormal thinking, emotions, and behaviors. It supports improved mood, thought clarity, and daily functioning. Symptom improvement may take several weeks, so continuous use as directed by your doctor is essential, even if you do not notice immediate effects.

How to Take Sizodon Forte Tablet
Take the medication exactly as prescribed. It can be taken with or without food, ideally in the evening. Swallow the tablet whole, without chewing or crushing. Do not stop the medicine suddenly without consulting your doctor, as this may worsen symptoms. If a dose is missed, take it as soon as possible unless it is near the time of your next dose.

Possible Side Effects
Some side effects may occur while your body adjusts, usually resolving over time. Common effects include:
• Nausea or constipation
• Dry mouth
• Sleepiness or drowsiness
• Weight gain
• Sudden drop in blood pressure when standing
• Tremors
• Blurred vision
• Headache
• Upper respiratory or urinary tract infections
• Nasal congestion
• Increased prolactin levels

Precautions
• Alcohol may increase drowsiness; avoid drinking
• Consult your doctor if pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding
• Driving may be unsafe if dizziness, blurred vision, or mental confusion occurs
• Use cautiously in kidney or liver disease; dose adjustments may be required
• Inform your doctor of any other medications you are taking

How It Works
Sizodon Forte Tablet combines two medicines: Risperidone and Trihexyphenidyl. Risperidone is an atypical antipsychotic that balances dopamine and serotonin levels, improving mood, behavior, and thought processes. Trihexyphenidyl is an anticholinergic that helps manage certain side effects caused by antipsychotic therapy and supports nervous system function.

Missed Dose Guidance
If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember. If it is close to the next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and continue your regular routine. Do not double the dose to compensate.
