Ticstop Tablet

Product Introduction
Ticstop Tablet is prescribed for the treatment of chorea, a movement disorder marked by involuntary and sudden jerky motions, commonly seen in individuals with Huntington’s disease. It helps in reducing these abnormal movements and enhances the patient’s ability to perform daily tasks with better control and coordination.

This medicine can be taken with or without meals, but it’s best to take it at the same time every day to maintain steady levels in the body. Follow the dosage instructions provided by your doctor carefully. Do not stop taking Ticstop suddenly without consulting your healthcare provider, as this may lead to worsening of symptoms.

Some common side effects of Ticstop include nausea, difficulty sleeping, anxiety, tiredness, restlessness, drowsiness, and depression. It may also cause dizziness and sleepiness, so avoid driving or performing activities that require mental alertness until you understand how the medicine affects you. Inform your doctor immediately if you notice unusual mood changes, worsening depression, or suicidal thoughts.

Seek medical help right away if you develop symptoms like fever, stiff muscles, seizures, or confusion, which could indicate a serious condition known as neuroleptic malignant syndrome. It is important to inform your doctor about any existing health conditions and all other medicines you are taking to avoid harmful interactions. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should only take Ticstop under strict medical supervision.

How Ticstop Works
Ticstop works by lowering the amount of dopamine in the brain. Dopamine is a chemical messenger that plays a key role in controlling body movements. Excess dopamine can cause uncontrolled, jerky motions, which are common in Huntington’s disease. By restoring balance, Ticstop helps calm these movements and improves motor control.
